Budget and very useful to amplify Dynamic Mic Gain
Budget mic booster. This will amplify your mic gain for about 25db more. It uses the audio interface phantom power and convert it to boost your dynamic microphone. Tested it with the RODE PodMic and very pleasant result. It will work the same with any hungry gain mic like the famous Shur SM7B. If you want to broke the bank and get a mic booster this one is highly recommended

Works as intended, seems pretty durable. Quality is pretty good. It does the job and increases the audio of the microphone. Pretty clear no noticeable gain effects. Easy to use, plug and play.

Je ne connaissais pas ... et maintenant que j'ai vu le résultat, je ne peux plus m'en passer. Cela ne prend pas de place et est tout petit et surtout tout léger Qualité excellente sur mes micros (puissance, clarté et précision). Je rappelle quand même qu'il faut que votre micro soit sur un excellent amplificateur. Sur ce, je vais en acheter d'autres.

es un excelente dispositivo para microfonos dinamicos. lo recomiendo al 100%. el unico problema de comprarlo, es el tiempo de espera. se tarda hasta 4 semanas en llegar. pero valae la pena.

Design & Build Quality 🧰 The FetHead is a compact and beautifully machined inline preamp that looks and feels like proper stage hardware, not a gimmick add-on. The steel body is solid and well-finished, with precisely fitted XLR connectors that click in snugly. The labeling is minimal and professional — this feels like a tool made for daily use, not a studio toy. The internal shielding is clearly doing its job, as there’s no detectable hum or interference even when plugged directly into a noisy interface chain. Ease of Use ⚙️ Using the FetHead is as straightforward as it gets — just insert it between the mic and the preamp, and you’re done. There are no switches, no power supply, and no fuss. It runs on phantom power from the interface or mixer, yet doesn’t pass it to the mic, so it’s fully safe for dynamic and ribbon microphones. The small size makes it easy to leave it permanently attached without straining connectors or interfering with stands. Performance in Real Life 🎙️ Noise performance is astonishing. With the preamp gain maxed out but no mic connected, the FetHead remains completely silent — no hiss, no hum, no trace of circuit noise. In a real setup with an AKG D5 dynamic mic, the self-noise floor sits below –80 dB, which is far beyond what most interfaces can measure accurately. The gain boost is clean and transparent, adding presence and clarity without changing tone or adding harshness. On stage, it behaves predictably and never overloads the input; in the studio, it makes low-output dynamics sound like they’ve come alive. Notable Issues ⚠️ None in practice. The only “limitation,” if one has to find it, is that the FetHead is a fixed-gain device — you don’t control the amount of amplification — but that’s part of its simplicity and reliability. Final Verdict 🔑 The Triton Audio FetHead is one of those rare tools that just disappear into the signal chain because they do their job flawlessly. It’s quiet, strong, compact, and built like it belongs on a professional stage or broadcast desk. For dynamic and ribbon microphones, it’s a true plug-and-forget solution that delivers a clean, silent signal boost every time. Absolutely recommended for anyone who values precision and silence over marketing fluff.
