The Royer R-122V is the apex of the R-Series line. A world-class tube lace mouthpiece showing unparalleled abundance, profundity, and detail, especially within the midrange frequencies. The R-122V offers the best option in lace mouthpiece execution for those who seek the finest products. The Royer-pioneered concept of dynamic lace receiver innovation reaches new heights. By joining vacuum tube hardware into the same demonstrated transducer framework utilized within the admired R-121 and R-122 lace mouthpieces, the R-122 innovates upon the well-known Royer tech.
The R-122V is all about luxury
The tall working voltage of the vacuum tube gives headroom distant past that accessible from a standard apparition control supply. Sonically, this deciphers into unmatched clarity, detail, and airiness. This is in addition to its capacity to handle brute SPL levels without wincing. The R-122V’s head intensifier comprises a low-noise, triode-connected, military-reviewed 5840 vacuum tube. Boasting a myriad of uses, the R-122V offers the best eminent temporal reaction and drive capabilities a vacuum tube head intensifier can give. The circuit is destitute of ordinary vacuum tube colouration.
The R-122V’s triode-configured cathode devotee circuitry empowers the receiver to drive long cable runs without sonic debasement or high-frequency misfortune. This capability is enhanced by the R-122V’s devoted control supply, which gives plentiful current to the vacuum tube hardware. White noise is nullified by the microphone’s adjusted yield, which is electrically confined with an uncommon Jensen yield transformer.
Like the phantom fueled R-122, the R-122V has a better level yield than non-powered lace receivers. In addition, its impedance coordinating circuitry places a culminate stack on the lace component at all times. This allows for the utilization of a wide assortment of mic preamps without concern for pick up and impedance matches. All of the R122V’s expanded yield comes from its expansive, uncommonly planned toroidal transformer, so there’s no extra clamour related to the microphone’s higher yield.
