Best value: Correct
Preamp 2 channel class A. ... XLR connectors

UTILIZATION

simple: power, channel 1 changeover phase, 48V power supply, gain knob ... No fuss, the effective and what look ...

SOUND QUALITY

The heart of the action ... It is a great preamp, different from the elegant Avalon or SSL, different from the "attack" Neve ... He has, and it is quite surprising, a real personality that we must seek with the microphones ... Let me explain, all the microphones do not suit him ... It is really terrible with static or dynamic lights VERY well made (Beta52A, 421 for example ...). When he found the good buddies, it's happiness, the sound is full of detail and precision, without any concession.

OVERALL OPINION

As mentioned earlier, choosing a microphone is essential. As this preamp is very precise on the bottom of the spectrum will make the best with tube microphones, the lower midrange warmth. The microphone that fits like a glove for me is the AT4060 Audio-Tachnica home. All instrument a little "slender" (flutes of all kinds ...) appear above, the accordion is a very good depth, good bite in the brass ... The female vocals on this couple are divine ... Live, move and bass kick in is fairly sound, who can afford it, because the animal is not given, but she has things to say ...
This is not a preamp "basic", it is quite specific, distinctive acoustic instrument, but the detail he gives sound, accuracy on the bottom are doing well once "married" a valuable and endearing.
A choice for complementary which is already equipped preamp more "universal" and needing a companion to the charms specific to the quality / fair price, with a very "searched".
Player on the flute ... For micro
