FMR Audio RNP 8380 – very nice little micro stereo preamp.
Perfect if you are on the move.
Well looked after from smoke free studio.
Newer model/light grey – check pics.
I have now invested in more expensive preamp/ eq/ channel strip.
This little unit was a good stepping stone and the cheapest you will find anywhere.
This is a bargain price.

What It IsThe RNP is a pair of separate micpres providing up to 66dB of gain at vanishing low distortion levels in a compact 1/3 rack format. The RNP possesses all the features you’d expect from a professional preamp: accurate signal metering,1M input impedance DI inputs, high input level capability (up to +28dBu input), high-capacity phantom power supply, sealed relay switching for invert/phantom functions, gold-plated 12-position gain switch, TRS insert between preamp stage and output driver, +28dBu TRS-balanced outputs, 5k differential input impedance on mic input, plus features like output muting during phantom engage/disengage and battery or AC mains operation.
How It SoundsThe RNP was designed with sonic neutrality in mind without sounding “clinical” or sterile. There’s very little colorationno unexpected frequency response peaks and valleysacross the very wide frequency response (125kHz) at every gain setting. Particularly, there’s no variation in the preamp’s low frequency response as a function of gain setting. Basically, what you put into the RNP you get out with very little additional effect.
How It’s DoneModern opampslittle miracles of the semiconductor agemake the design of decent-sounding preamps up to 50dB, or so, an almost trivial exercise. It’s the last 10 to 15dB that really uncovers the flaws in amplifier design. The RNP’s design uses a unique configuration that permits Class-A operation of a discrete transistor pair that almost completely erases the non-linear effects of Vbe and emitter bulk resistance that dog traditional preamp circuits. Additionally, special circuitry constantly measures and adjusts circuit parameters to eliminate gain-control path capacitors and avoids costly individual-trimming to achieve low-distortion, high-CMRR performance required in commercial audio settings over the life of the preamp!
