UTILIZATION

Pretty simple but the instructions are faithful to RME: not super clear ...

SOUND QUALITY

YES
TRANSPARENT

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a while but at first I was using it often, was to complement the inputs of a digital table that I was filling that live so rarely ...

I tried some preamp and I bought it blindly on the advice of a friend tester for a magazine.

Its transparency is very significant because the AC (s) makes them very versatile

At first I felt it was expensive and with hindsight and more experience, I think the price is very correct with respect to sound quality.
The average second hand price is (for now) 1149 € or + / - 140 € / for a  preamp this is reasonable compared to an AVALON ...
