The Radial McBoost Microphone Signal Booster is designed to eliminate hiss from recordings. It is particularly useful when recording with ribbon or dynamic microphones that have low output levels. In these cases, a significant amount of gain is needed to achieve usable results. Similarly, when using a condenser microphone to record delicate parts, increasing the input level can introduce unwanted noise. The McBoost solves this problem by providing an additional 25dB of volume through its front-panel level control. With its durable all-steel construction, it is equally suitable for use on the road or in the studio. Improve the quality of your recordings today by using the Radial McBoost Microphone Signal Booster.

The McBoost is a class-A signal booster that offers exceptional audio quality and minimal distortion. Its design includes a class-A circuit, making it one of the best in its category. The purpose of the McBoost is to enhance the signal level of low-output microphones, enabling them to perform better within a mixing console. To use it, simply connect the McBoost between the microphone and preamp. Its all-steel construction with protective book ends ensures durability.
In addition to its class-A circuitry, the McBoost is equipped with hand-matched transistors and a dual FET class-A circuit, providing up to 25dB of boost. The front-panel level control allows you to adjust the boost level as needed. The unit also features a 3-position high-pass filter to eliminate excessive rumble and proximity build-ups. Furthermore, the McBoost includes a 3-position impedance selector for optimal load on the microphone, resulting in increased accuracy.
The McBoost offers a range of useful features, such as boosting low-output microphones for use with mixing consoles, a dual FET class-A circuit, and up to 25dB of controllable boost. It is powered by standard 48V Phantom Power and includes a 3-position high-pass filter. The unit is equipped with standard XLR connections and is suitable for use with ribbon microphones. Its all-steel construction ensures durability.
Specifications of the McBoost include a class-A differential DC coupled FET circuit, a frequency response of 7Hz to 30kHz, and a dynamic range of 116dB. The gain can be adjusted to +26dB (full gain), +20dB (half gain), or +4dB to +25dB (variable gain). The clip level is +16dBu (output), and the total harmonic distortion is less than 0.006%. The intermodulation distortion is less than 0.01%, and the phase deviation is less than 10°. The input impedance is either 600ohm, 2.7kohm, or 30kohm, and the output impedance is 220ohm. The common mode rejection ratio is greater than 50dB. The equivalent input noise is -125dBu, and the noise level is -100dBu or -110dBu. The product code for the McBoost is R800-8016-00.
