MERCURY DEBUTS THE NEW D SERIES G810 RACK, A QUANTUM LEAP AHEAD FOR ‘500 RACKS’

Mercury Recording Equipment Company is debuting the first of many products in their new Mercury D Series Line. The first is the Mercury D Seres G810 Rack. From the outside, you might think you have seen this product or something similar before but you are in for a surprise. Using 20 years experience custom racking vintage modules with Marquette Audio Labs and nearly 15 years manufacturing Mercury Recording Equipment Co. products, David Marquette and Mercury Recording Equipment Company pulled out all the stops on their new product, the Mercury G810, and completely reinvented the ‘500 Rack’ inside and out.

The Mercury D Series G810 is not just another piece of hardware, but a quantum leap ahead for a Recording Industry format, making the Mercury G810 the new benchmark in ‘500 racks.’ The G810 is the new standard for reliability, stability and performance and allows you as an engineer, as well as all other ‘500 Module’ manufactures, to get the most out of the limited format. The Mercury G810 provides a solid foundation with the best power structure and regulation using our proprietary Mercury Power Regulation Circuit, Mercury Soft Start Circuit along with the robust Mercury PSU-1 Power Supply.

The new Mercury D Series Line will have additional products in the near future for the Mercury D Series G810 Rack. Future Mercury D Series products that will let you get the most out of the modules you already own and have additional features at your finger tips that some module do not have available. As well Mercury will have several Mercury D Series Modules (Classics and New Designs) and Mercury G8 Modules for slots 9 and 10 to improve the flexibility and add additional features to get even more out of your G810 Rack. The debut of the Mercury D Series G810 Rack is just the beginning of a new recording system from Mercury Recording Equipment Co. and Proudly Made in the USA!
