Product Info

The Meris 440 is a seriously good-sounding preamp in a compact 500 format. It's a great choice for singer-songwriters or anyone wanting a clean, characterful boost for vocals, acoustic guitars, or even bass. The subtle 'grind' circuit is a nice touch for adding a little extra edge when you need it.
