Hi,
I've built ribbon mic. It sounds quite good (to me but requires to crank gain and volume to the top on any preamp I tried. this creates too much hiss. (I am going to re-ribbon it with sub-micron foil later, that should improve sensitivity, but still ...)
Could you please recommend a good (best) preamp (preferably with schematic available) for such very low input application.
I'd prefer a tube mic pre because:
a) I'd like to DIY it and tube schematics are usually simpler to build.
b) high input impedance
Just in case, if it helps, the mic has Lundahl trannie 1:37.
Thanks!
