-10dB is useful when more color and saturation from a high-end preamp is desired, or when paired with very loud sounds.

0 dB

0dB sets the output of the Clarion to its default output gain selection.

+10 dB

+10dB is ideal for use with quiet sound sources and consumer-grade audio interfaces where more character from the microphone itself is desired.

MUCH MORE THAN JUST A PAD

EACH SELECTION DETERMINES WHAT THE CLARION HEARS.

PREMIUM COMPONENTS

The Clarion signal path is populated with high resolution, low distortion polypropylene capacitors, a US made low-noise FET, and a custom wound output transformer that puts the finishing touches on every sound that passes through it's copper windings. The result is a classic, open, mix-ready sound brimming with life.

FINISHING

TOUCHES

After being hand-polished, the Clarion's solid brass enclosure is hand finished with a durable, non-toxic ceramic coating and baked in an oven for curing before final assembly, burn-in, and testing.
