How about:
Core Sound 2496 V2
$600, 60 dB max boost
http://www.core-sound.com/Mic2496/1.php
Of course, S/PDIF output requires recorder that can accept digital in, as this
is both a pre-amp and A-to-D converter.

>Pocket-size battery powered preamps

>Last year, I posted a list of pocket-size preamps that can help nature

>
>The preamps listed below support two channels of input unless noted

>the Line Input of your recorder.
>
>There are many excellent preamps that are too big to be easily

>For example, the Grace Lunatec V2 is a great preamp. It's just too
>big to be carried very far from the car.

>It's OK to reproduce this list elsewhere, just be sure to credit the
>NatureRecordists list on Yahoo as the source. Thanks.

>Did I miss any? Please let me know.
