A visual representation of what's going on in the box

Below is a side by side comparison of the 1276's harmonic character versus the Avalon VT-737SP channel strip.

Harmonic distortion, or more commonly known as “color” is the secret sauce to good gear. This visual representation shows how diverse the 1276’s harmonic saturation is. Each peak represents an octave of the fundamental tone. In this case, we ran an 80Hz sine wave through each unit to clearly define where the harmonics are generated.

FREQUENCY RESPONSE

The 1276 features an inductor high pass filter that helps get rid of unwanted low-frequency sounds. This filter is designed to reduce the energy of low bass notes in a smooth and gradual way. We carefully studied where to put this filter in the audio system, and we decided to place it between two important parts of the device: the preamp and the output volume control. This way, the filter can work effectively by removing the low bass sounds while still preserving the richness and depth of the overall audio.
