Dial in unique sounds with discrete solid state and tube gain stages.

The Universal Audio 710 Twin-Finity is a radically different UA preamp design which combines the classic retro warmth of UA tube design and the transient bite of solid-state in a 2U, half-rack, all-metal chassis. The UA 710 microphone preamp and DI was created specifically to add the tonal versatility and sonic inspiration missing from generic audio interface preamps.

The key to the UA Twin-Finity 710 preamp's sonic flexibility lies in its innovative circuit design. The unit's solid-state transimpedance input amp simultaneously drives separate, phase-aligned tube and solid-state gain stages, which are then summed to a single output. The mix between the 310-volt single-ended class-A triode tube stage and solid-state transimpedance stage is controlled via the Blend Knob. Blending is continually variable between 100% tube and 100% solid-state offering a practically infinite range of unique pre-amp tones and the ability to easily dial-in your own signature sound.

Like all Universal Audio preamp designs, the 710 Twin-Finity features dual gain-stage controls (Gain/Level), which can radically vary the amount of coloration and distortion by allowing you to crank up the input, gain like a guitar amp. The VU meter features a unique Drive mode allowing you to see how hard you are driving the input stage.

Versatility makes the 710 the perfect preamp partner for any mic collection. Plus, the discrete JFET DI input circuit can also easily handle any electric instrument. Guitar and bass players will especially appreciate the 710s ability to bring out the best of both active and passive pickups. The 710 Twin-Finity is designed and built at UA headquarters in California, and includes a 19" rack-kit for mounting one or two units.

The Best PREAMP! Ever!

Very versatile and great on vocals and warming up electric guitars. I use this on all my projects, especially vocals. I cannot say enough about how it can deliver warm and detailed vocals. It is worth the small change for a professional preamp. Currently, I own a UA 610 Solo, TL Audio Preamp with compressor and a ART Gold. My AEA ribbon mic works well with the UA 710, giving it enough juice to sweeten the delicacy of a womans sultry voice. Ah yeah!

Great piece, just what I was looking for

The 710 is a great piece, with lots of different tones to flatter any source. As a mic pre it can do super clean to warm. I'm not too keen on distorting the unit on microphone sources but use the crunchy overdriven tones all the time when tracking DI gtr/bas because it really fattens things up and makes it sound less like a DI which is one of the coolest features.
