UTILIZATION

His main interest is the coloring. You can find preamps at least as transparent or colorful. But I know few in offering to switch from one to another with such ease and elegance.

I've plugged a lot of different mics, KM84 and 86, and 105 kms85, U87 and 89, Brussels-II, Octava 319 and 2500, Sennheiser Md431, 21 and 211, of Beyer band, the BPM, I forget plus some chinoiserie.

With the microphones pèchus least it's a great big preamp as described in prior reviews. We will look much dough without damaging the microphone instead (with the part transistors).

With others, this preamp is especially coloring box. Shiny, silky, aggressive, bold, crystalline, retail or compression Bellari greasy way, there is something fun.

The benefit of this box of coloring is that you can understand and find the best microphone, his real # @ P ~ ~ its. So when you tickle a bit of a km86, for example, and he laughs out loud, the baby Jesus that makes you pee in the ears.

SOUND QUALITY

As transistor preamp, there are better ,.... more.
As preamp tube, there are much better ... More expensive.

It also gets worse and more expensive anyway.

OVERALL OPINION

4 years of use. Q / P excellent.
This choice I would do if I lost, but only one box coloring enough.
