MINFERNO
Ÿ
Unique Headphone Amplifier
We spent a long time optimising the performance of the THAT corporation
microphone amplifier used in the original Inferno and used again on the MinFerno/0.
It features very low noise & distortion circuit that we remote control the gain of in 1dB
steps, which allows us to provide the remote webpage gain control as well as the rear
panel gain push buttons. We also optimised the circuits to allow correct source
impedance switching depending on whether the input has been set as a mic or line
input.

Low Noise Microphone Amplifier With Remote Gain
As with all our commentary units the MinFerno/0 features our very popular Referee
compressor limiter circuit. This circuit starts to compress the commentator’s voice
gradually and slowly increases the compression ratio as the input level becomes
overly high resulting in a very natural sounding and distortion free audio output
capable of taming even the loudest of commentators.

High Quality Analogue To Digital Converter (ADC)
Dante®/ AES67 network audio is a digital circuit and as such the best analogue
microphone amplifier would be wasted if we hadn’t paired it up with the best
analogue to digital converter. The ADC’s job is fairly simple and if you look at our tech
spec you’ll see that we’ve made ours work incredibly well.
with our headphone amplifiers as with our on air microphones. Our unique
headphone amplifier provides the correct output level regardless of the impedance of
the attached headphones, meaning that broadcasters can now pick and choose
between low impedance ‘cheap’ headphones and high impedance traditional
broadcast ones.
The commentator’s headphones are a vitally important tool so we take as much care
