Two transformers for two different voicings.
Replay Box features two independent reamplification circuits: Transparent and Harmonic.
The Transparent circuit features our custom-wound, US-made, 5043 step up transformer, which provides extraordinary signal isolation and noise rejection for mastering-grade quality. It accepts your balanced or unbalanced line level input signal to deliver an absolutely clean, isolated, unbalanced output capable of driving any amp, pedal, or processor. Because the transformer is wound to have passive gain, it has about 3 dB of additional gain on tap above its already +4 dB rated input from your DAW or recorder. No active circuitry or other components are involved — you get the cleanest gain available on any re-amplification device.
The Harmonic circuit is for those who desire a bit more coloration or fattening in the re-amp stage. Harmonic mode engages an alternate transformer specifically designed to add character. This transformer is wound to offer a steeper gain ratio alongside a very gentle rolling-off of the uppermost high frequencies. It adds both harmonic and phase distortion in the sub-bass region, fattening the low mids and delivering a more aggressive and warmer tone.
All the pure transformer gain you could ever want for re-amping.
The Replay Box was designed from the ground up to solve the two most common problems found in re-amping: noise and low gain.
When re-amping, any and all unwanted noise is re-amplified alongside the desired musical content. Unfortunately, most re-amp boxes on the market add some degree of noise and coloration to the signal, making it harder to achieve a satisfying result. Furthermore, most re-amp boxes also do not provide enough gain to drive an amp well, meaning engineers need to rely on boost or preamp pedals… which in turn add additional noise, distortion, and unwanted character.
We designed the Replay Box to provide more clean gain than you’ll ever need, without ever needing to add a noise-inducing preamp or boost pedal. And its true ground isolation further ensures you won’t be plagued by ground-loop hum while re-amping.
