  • Page 2 Acoustic Instrument Reference Preamp / DI Thank you for your X7 purchase! The X7 is from the sixth generation of our highly acclaimed AP series preamps. They are engineered for accuracy, transparency, and ultra-low noise. By following this guide, you can expect years of faithful service from your X7 Warnings! •...
  • Page 3 Mute the channel on the mixer when turning on or off phantom power on the mixer and when switching to phantom power or battery power on the X7 to avoid and spikes in the audio signal. The impedance of the XLR output is ultra low at 100Ω (200Ω balanced) It is possible to get +4db signals from the XLR balanced output.

  • Page 4: Gain Control

    This varies with your gain and eq settings. Unlike most preamps that are only 9V DC battery powered and considered dead at 8 volts, the X7 is 18 volts on battery power and will play well even with the batteries drained down to below 9 volts on the power rails. If you consider your performance to be mission critical however, install fresh batteries whenever you change your strings.
  • Page 5 G string frequency range, and not the low E and A strings. We don't use a notch filter in the X7 design and you can really hear the difference. The Isometric Equalizer allows for fast and simple complete feedback elimination, and the bass response is still tight, loud, and very low.
