First of all, all these numbers should have a minus sign in
front of them, and for them to be informative at all I'd
want to know if they are dBu or dBV.
99 and 106 are *very bad* - how does one design a mic preamp
to be that bad ? Use a 714 wired as differential amplifier ?
Things start to be interesting around -125 dBV and below.
Figures in the below -125 dBV range require either a transformer
(big, expensive, heavy) or some quite nifty (again expensive)
input circuit design.
Ciao,
