## Overview

The TRITON AUDIO FetHead Filter is a compact, metal inline microphone preamp delivering 22 dB of low-noise Class-A JFET amplification. Powered by 48V phantom, it enhances ribbon and dynamic microphones by improving signal-to-noise ratio and adding headroom, ideal for quiet sources or preamps with limited gain. Its durable design and seamless XLR integration make it a must-have for professional and home studios seeking clean, reliable gain boosts.

## Description

Recommended Application Our FetHead filter is recommended to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and performance in the following situations: - Recording directly into a DAW interface - Noisy or low amplifying preamps - Mixers / preamps that negatively affect sound at higher gain settings - Long motor ribbon microphones - Microphones that have an excessive close up effect - - Microccation of From quieter sound sources Circuit topology Our FetHead filter uses a low-noise FET amplifier circuit that accurately reproduces every detail and offers first-class sound quality.

Review: High quality, does a simple job very well. - Used to boost the gain on my EV RE20, a big dynamic microphone with a -60db bias. My Focusrite Scarlett provided 56db gain or so, not quite enough. The Fethead is commonly used to provide additional preamplification required to make these mics usable with Scarletts; I see no reason it wouldn’t work with other USB amps, or anywhere else a constant ~20db gain would be welcome. The unit plugs in in-line via an XLR female input and male output, and is powered off 48v phantom power. It doesn’t pass the input signal without power, which is a feature for me—a kind of poor person’s mute. It works most anywhere in the signal chain; I have it plugged into two patch cables running to the mic and the Scarlett, but it works equally well plugged in at the input or output end. Do what’s most convenient physically, considering that it will add about 3” to the connector assembly wherever it’s inserted. All in all, this is a well-manufactured product with a durable design. It’s ideal for adding gain to a big dynamic mic like an RE20 or an SM7, but it will work wherever you need a constant gain boost and have phantom power and XLR connectivity.
Review: Simple mic level booster with an elegant style - I got this for my SM7B in lieu of a Cloudlifter. As best as I can tell, it sounds identical, looks better, and is way more convenient. You do not strictly need a booster for an SM7B if you have a halfway decent preamp. I noticed that the booster was able to lower the noise floor by a bit in all circumstances, but only made a very significant difference when increasing the preamp (Behringer UMC404) gain above 90%. Definitely recommended if recording particularly quiet sounds or recording far away from the mic. Also recommended if you are making money with your recording setup. Nice to have but not strictly necessary if you're on a tight budget.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work with a goxlr?**
A: Yes but you will need to change the mic type in goxlr settings to condenser so it has phantom power otherwise nothing will get through (even if you are using dynamic because that is all the setting in goxlr does)

**Q: Will it work on condenser microphone ?**
A: No. This particular model works only on dynamic microphones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fetheads baby...
*by S***D on March 3, 2024*

I have bought this with another (cheaper brand) to do a side by side comparison of the two... The cheap brand did work, and worked as expected not bad... But there is something about the Fethead that makes it my prefered (of the two). Both are very clean and boost the signal quite well, but the Fethead has some characteristics to it... Nothing to drastic, but very ultra subtle, that makes it seem better? I can't confirm what is going on beneath, but I do know that these are ultra great alternatives compared to the pricier "Cloud"... These could be placebo for all I know, and maybe I'm favoring the Fethead, but in reality, you might have better components etc in the Fethead vs the cheapos. Again I cannot confirm. It just works and works very well boosting the dynamic mic input gains drastically without adding extra noise. You will need a 48V Phantom mixer or capable interface.
