Morbin Audio MA76A Limiting Amplifier

The MA76a is a faithful reproduction of the legendary FET based current limiting amplifier first seen in the 1960’s. This vintage design features a silver brushed-aluminium face with a blue stipe just like the original and custom designed British made audio transformers from Sowter.  All 1176 compressors have there own personalities but none more so than the original blue strip design which exhibits its own unique character. 

The classic 1176 was a major breakthrough in limiter technology, the first true peak limiter with all transistor circuitry offering superior performance with a signature. The ultra-fast attack time is a trademark sound of the 1176 and the ability to ‘Slam’ audio tracks has given the design pride of place in the studio.

The MA76a also features a ‘broadcast safe’ mode implementing a true bypass when there is no power to the unit. Together with this as standard all units come with stereo linking capability, so why not buy 2 and have a stereo pair! Each unit is hand wired and calibrated to order, which means there may be a lead-time from purchase.
