The larger 1RU rack has allowed us to expand upon the design philosophy we established in the Juggernaut 500, which is versatility versatility versatility. With more physical space in the 19" outboard unit compared to the 500 series card format, it allowed us to give the end user more options.

What is the difference between the Juggernaut 500 and the Juggernaut Twin?

The Juggernaut Twin has all the style and flavor as the original Juggernaut 500 preamp plus these cool new additions...

Output transformers can now be switched via pushbutton on the front panel, allowing the user to access all 4 transformer combinations by simply pushing the input and output transformer buttons of your choice.

We have added dual outputs on balanced XLRs on the back of the Juggernaut Twin, something that can be very useful when recording in the studio or on location. We have also added +4 dbu line level inputs on XLRs, to send in your line level signals to fatten up or color your synths, stereo mixes, or individual tracks.

We've added a FAT switch which uses passive inductors/chokes; this gives you the ability to mellow out the high-mids and gently lift the low end to give that extra low end emphasis on key sources like drums, bass, vocals, etc.

And finally, we have provided the ability use the iron or nickel input transformer in the instrument DI path, you can still choose transformerless DI as well, this is selectable using the new Line to Mic switch via pushbutton on the front panel.

All of these new pushbutton features are incorporated into an intelligent and intuitive interface on the front panel.
