The Fredenstein Bento 8 500-Series Rack is a pure analog module carrier with onboard audio routing, compressor buss linking, and clean, high-power topology. It is designed to deliver robust, ultra-clean power that will satisfy even the most demanding 500 Series modules.
The Fredenstein Bento 8 500-Series Rack features a complete linear power supply consisting of a mains transformer and linear regulators. This topology yields the cleanest power to your modules. Usually linear power supplies can't deliver high output currents, but Fredenstein Bento 8 outputs +/-16V DC 2A and +48V DC 0.25A, 500mA per slot, that's ample power for the most demanding 500 series modules! Another drawback of linear supplies is that they are prone to introduce hum magnetically from the mains transformer directly into input and output transformer inside modules, especially when plugged into the slot closest to the supply. The Fredenstein Bento 8 incorporates extensive magnetic shielding of the mains transformer to eliminate induced hum.
The Fredenstein Bento 8 is constructed of the highest grade components: 1.5mm (59 mil) Steel Chassis, Toroidal mains transformer with two built-in thermal fuses, all electrolytic capacitors are made by Nichicon and are rated for 105°C(221°F), etc.
Fredenstein Bento 8 500-Series Rack Features
- Built-in Audio Routing (Modules can be daisy-chained by simply flipping switches on the back-panel)
- Compressor buss linking (Compressor modules can be linked by engaging switches on the back-panel as well)
- Ground-lift switch (In case of ground loops, the audio ground and the protective ground can be disconnected)
