Published on 12/31/13 at 05:15I was looking for a preamp / DI to transform the impedance and attack a compressor properly DBX 160A
I eventually turned my traditional amps (bass mark) to go directly into a PA amp.
To the sound is simply excellent, it is always in the most accurate, not a fart breath.
For lovers of transistor, the foot, I would say that this preamp coupled to an amplifier PA is the best solution for me amplifying transistor.
on the other hand, if you prefer heat lamps, and many buy the lamp, the U5 is not just that.
UTILIZATION
the boost up to 30 db is very effective, the sound is clear, it is difficult to get the signal distortion.
Presets équalsation board are great and well oriented to the bottom, however, I still recommend having a real equalizer (or rack then an integrated bass preamp) for more flexibility on the equalizer.
SOUND QUALITY
I am very satisfied on all uses, it is very neutral and accurate, I feel that the bandwidth is extended (I got more bass) compared to preamps that equipped my MB heads.
OVERALL OPINION
I put 9 and not 10 because I think it would have been desirable to carry a meter to indicate the level of output (useful for attacking a console or sound card) and I would also add a mute is always helpful.
