Triton Audio FetHead AirHead V2｜In-line Variable Passive Microphone Attenuator

Precisely Match Signal Levels, Solve Input Overload Issues

The Triton Audio FetHead AirHead V2 is an in-line variable passive attenuator, designed to provide precise, transparent level control between a microphone and a preamp. It features a purely passive circuit, offering a continuously adjustable attenuation range from -6 dB to -18 dB, and can seamlessly pass the preamp's +48V Phantom Power to the microphone without requiring external power, effectively preventing preamp overload caused by high-output signal sources.

Compared to traditional fixed-value Pad / Attenuator, the AirHead V2 offers greater adjustment flexibility, allowing you to precisely match any high-output microphone or line-level equipment with sensitive microphone preamps. Whether it's a Condenser or Dynamic microphone, it integrates seamlessly, solving the problem of excessively strong signals without altering the tone.

使用者建議分析(點此展開)

▼

適合誰購買

Recording engineers using high-output microphones (e.g., active Ribbon) whose preamps lack Pad / Attenuator functionality.
Live sound engineers who need to safely connect Line-Level signal sources to Mic-Level inputs.
Content creators who want precise Input Gain control to avoid digital clipping and preserve maximum Dynamic Range.

誰不適合購買

Users who need to boost microphone signal Gain (this product's function is attenuation, opposite to FetHead).
Users whose audio interface or preamp already has sufficient Pad / Attenuator options and Gain control range.

Triton Audio AirHead V2 Core Technologies and Features

Variable Attenuation Design: A side adjustment screw allows continuous attenuation from -6 dB to -18 dB, offering more precise level control than a fixed Pad / Attenuator.
Pure Passive Circuit: Utilizes high-quality passive components to ensure a clean and transparent signal path, only reducing volume without imparting any coloration or change to the tone.
Solves Level Mismatch: Perfectly resolves overload issues when connecting high-output signal sources like microphones, synthesizers, or mixer outputs (Line-Level) to sensitive Mic-Level inputs.
Phantom Power Pass-through: Seamlessly passes your microphone preamp's +48V Phantom Power to Condenser microphones, ensuring normal microphone operation and excellent compatibility.
Balanced Signal Path: Standard XLR input and Output Connector maintain full balanced signal transmission, effectively resisting external noise interference and preserving audio quality.
Robust and Portable Design: All-metal casing ensures sturdy durability, capable of withstanding the demanding environments of studios or live performances. Its compact and lightweight design makes it an essential tool for audio engineers.

In-line Level Management Core

Source Level Attenuation: Installed directly between the microphone and preamp, it performs analog attenuation before the signal enters the digital system, fundamentally preventing Digital Clipping and preserving maximum Dynamic Range for post-production.
Expands Preamp Application Flexibility: Enables preamps without Pad / Attenuator functionality or with insufficient Pad / Attenuator amounts to easily handle various high-output signal sources, significantly enhancing equipment applicability and flexibility.
Transparent Audio: The pure passive circuit design ensures extremely low noise and distortion, faithfully transmitting the details and dynamics of the original audio without adding any unnecessary coloration to your signal chain.

Pros

Variable attenuation design (-6 dB to -18 dB) offers greater adjustment flexibility than a fixed Pad / Attenuator.
Pure passive circuit completely avoids tonal coloration, ensuring an absolutely clean signal path.
Effectively solves level matching challenges between high-output sources and sensitive microphone preamps.
Supports Phantom Power pass-through, allowing seamless use with Condenser microphones, offering high compatibility.

Notes to Know

This product is a signal attenuator and does not provide Gain, which is the opposite function of the FetHead series.
Attenuation values must be adjusted with a small screwdriver, making it unsuitable for frequent, rapid switching during performances.

Triton Audio FetHead FAQ

Q：Can Triton Audio FetHead AirHead V2 be used with a Condenser microphone? Will it block Phantom Power?

▼

A：Yes. The AirHead V2 is designed to seamlessly pass +48V Phantom Power from the preamp to the Condenser microphone, allowing both to operate normally and ensuring full compatibility.

Q：What is the difference between AirHead V2 and a preamp's built-in Pad / Attenuator button?

▼

A：The main difference is that AirHead V2 offers continuously variable attenuation from -6 dB to -18 dB, providing more flexibility than typical fixed-value Pad / Attenuator buttons (e.g., -20dB), allowing for more precise signal level matching.

Q：When would I need to use AirHead V2?

▼

A：You would need to use AirHead V2 when your microphone or instrument output signal is too strong, causing the audio interface's preamp to overload (clip) even at its lowest Gain setting, requiring AirHead V2 to reduce the input level.

Q：Will AirHead V2 change my microphone's tone?

▼

A：No. It uses a purely passive circuit design, intended only to reduce the volume level, and will not impart any coloration or change to the audio's Frequency Response or tonal characteristics.
