All user reviews for the Behringer Tube Ultragain T1953

Look very nice, a little lamp to look pretty
comprehensive connectivity, good home studio preamp
perfect with the microphones of the brand b1 and b2

UTILIZATION

Config very simple, clear manual

SOUND QUALITY

The sound of the instruments and microphones is correctly reproduced.
The preamp is transparent.

OVERALL OPINION

Used the last 3 years = RAS
price / quality ratio = perfect
- With experience, you do again what choice = YES

Integrated Circuits + color lamp at the end of string.

UTILIZATION

Easy and effective manual correct.

SOUND QUALITY

For me it's a bit special I used this preamp in original configuration in which it provides a very decent value for money, nothing to say.

In a second step I practiced over radical change: change of the whole chain of integrated circuits, all the coupling capacitors on the amplifier chain and relamping of origin by LPS Sovteck 12AT7. From this moment it is really clear in his Versailles (face value 800 euros) in the lamp is better but still somewhat artificial or even useless.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years with a modified year. My favorite is the result after the modif.D original value for money is very honest after modification it is amazing.

A phantom power supply with double prampli and "light" but if the rest of my post.
I will stay reasonable in the notes ... But I think no less.

UTILIZATION

It's ok. Very easy.
If only to serve sth.

SOUND QUALITY

L is complicated.
In matters of pre amp it's his office.
But for the "lights" I cry fraud.
With the lights of origin, only adds a breath.
I disassemble chang by Russian lights and you realize that has not change since in fact the lights are bright chimres by small lamps that are Derri re well aligned to make us believe that they work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

I am not an anti behringer, I have the right stuff them, but it is not good!
Thank you for taking us to the fruit.

If you want a neutral pre amp is ok (but there's cheaper and better) if you are looking for lamps, flee.
For my part, I kept two days.

OVERALL OPINION

One has the impression of being taken for a c **...
Behringer, good and not so good ...
The TUBE ULTRAGAIN T 1953 is not classified in the right.

(I reu my ART MPA GOLD Pramp is something else ....)

Technology lamps, efficient, unlike what we read below!
(Can be a bad or poor SERIES device, or possibly even the ears that do not peroivent dtails, music, high noise level makes it a little dull, especially if it's been a while one in fact!) This device can be designed in micro-prampli, (I found it a bit "dry" when same), as pre-amp "line", and attention! It is the first lamp that I put in my studio APRS have long turned numrique transistors and, believe me, I saw the Difference! Back rear appears to me as possible, Dornava ...
XLR Connectors and Jacks, In and Out

UTILIZATION

Configuration gnrale simple but complte, do not bother to have a gas plant which can not be used here, you just turn a few knobs, listen, and according to his rgler sensitivity ... The manual is in French sr.

SOUND QUALITY

Note: This prampli, efficient, however, will provide color in mdiums and treble, it is necessary to know, so you have dosed her SETTING THE Manir that the lamps (as they s 'clairent, must have had lctrophones lamps like me to confirm play their rle without changing overall record custom settings (I use my models for Global Warming).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years, no problem, I have not tried other models of lamps, yasr better, but this product is a good product trs, contrary to advice previous ones, which fortunately, I ignored when I bought. exprience with two years of use, yes, without hsiter, I do it again this election, and IS Behringer offers better one day, I'll at least try, then I'll see what I do, but if it really is better, certainly j'achterai.

Analog preamp vacuum tube
low-cut filter, phase reverse, +48 v and dosage of the "effect lamp"

UTILIZATION

A preamp is all there to be more simple, when you buy a product like this, we should have aucunne issues regarding the use

SOUND QUALITY

Here I want to make a point, the most curious of you auron removed the hood and will appercus that lamps do not light up for themselves ... it is actually deuce small filament lamps that are placed just behind that give that impression. recess, impossible to do if you do not remove the cover ...
So here, this is not a surprise to have seen a preamp tube "avalon" "dbx" "studies" (very good brand, or at least very expensive ") lamps are not much light is on! but in no case does this mean that the dedant mounted 12AX7 are fake, he is a visual effect for a little flatter our oeuil amateur Aguer. Now back a little to the technique with a little logic:
if the lights are there only to flatter the aesthetical, they are certainly a source of Energy consumption and especially heat inside our preamp! So remove them can only be beneficial to the preamp! and besides, it makes the replacement lamps for neck or other signs that light up our instruments and that's really useful!
beyond this detail is a preamp to match the price, it is pretty good, yes, the button "Warmth" adds little to interressant

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year
I am happy after all, is a relatively effectively and reliably for me
I had to try OCASI dbx, Studer, and Autes avalon (drawer etc) and the small-Chinese allmano doing well for a price that leaves me even better now!
I do it again this choice

2-way 2-way lamp circuits for input harmonics.
Full connectivity, XLR jack, XLR, jack.
can enter and exit XLR jack and vice versa, interesting, right?
gain settings, phantom power supplies, inverters phase, adjustable high pass filters, regulation of levels of output regulation of the level of harmonics by the addition of circuits lamps.
2U

I put 10 because nothing is missing!

UTILIZATION

Using very simple, very complete facade, a rarity in this price level.
the manual is useless.
I put 10 because here again, the device is absolutely complete.

SOUND QUALITY

First Quality: no breath.
The preamps are quite their job, with good headroom. They accept very nice to be saturated when searching for vintage sounds.
I have read several times that 10 times more expensive equipment sounded better ... Frankly, I hope for their owners this is true, if not, why?
As for the T1953, I bought it after having been appreciated the quality of the T1952, gate / compressor of the same series.
It is true that behringer has produced some machines avoid, because they generate the blast or even in the saturation settings means and therefore are simply unusable, but having said that, I find completely misinforming absolutely defamatory trials on machines that hold the road, just because behringer produced them.
in short, the sound is transparent, this machine does what is asked without polluting.
10/10 son-reglages/prix for the report.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost a year.
performances are compared with the preamps of my D32XD.
The sound is a little warmer, a bit less chiseled than the latter.
Is what I would do this choice? Yes, absolutely, again, in nine the T1953 is sold cheap, and says now more than 100 euros OCCAZ?

Scam prampli lamp while it is not the case at all!
there There's everything you need but just for the proposed models!

UTILIZATION

BEHRINGER BEHRINGER is therefore important to look for quality but fair price and for the price it has cost what it looks normal!

SOUND QUALITY

For a small home studio was worth it but not for a specific project for commercial purposes.

OVERALL OPINION

For a small home studio was worth it but not for a specific project for commercial purposes.
Do not buy! does not add to people looking to make as profit on the backs of people who have no budget consquant

Pramp lamp (12AX7). Those behind the camera quipent are Sovtek.
To get everyone in agreement, the lamps are beautiful and well clear of two bulbs. This is ridiculous and unnecessary.
The machine is equipped with a low cut (or high pass) that I never use.
There's also a knob "Warmth" meaning assay the contribution of the lamps. Not obvious at all. It Ramna more dirt than heat.

For all those wondering how to open it, it's not as complicated as has looks.
It must first remove the 3 referred to the unit each cot. And the two on top and two at the top the rear. Then you must dclipper the hood from below.
To change the lamps, has no use none of disassemble. Once the cover removed simply bend the small tabs to DGIG lamps. As it has said will take me for a crazy but you will understand once you see the indoor.

UTILIZATION

Trs trs simple to use and solid unlike its competitor BLUETUBE PreSonus.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound is rather dry and bland. I tried it with Sovtek and Electro Harmonic and changes nothing.
It lacks taken heat for voice or guitar. More precisely it lacks serious possde a bump in the acute-mdiums.
Cot and its the same price range I prfre BLUETUBE of the Presonus.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years.
I also possde BLUETUBE PreSonus two best I think. Warmer and more color. In addition they are 8 times smaller than the T1953 which is full of empty.
I use also an Art MPA gold incomparably better but more expensive.
I used the T1953 only when I have no choice. But it is even better than the pramp McKie table I use.

Park against the manufacturing quality is remarkable is the Costeau.

The features on this unit are great

Price paid: 100.00 USD

UTILIZATION

The Tube Gain 1953 is a very user friendly device.

SOUND QUALITY

This low cost "Mic Pre" really sounds good. I add warmth to your vocals without over coloring of the sound.

OVERALL OPINION

The fit and finish of this unit is up there with higher priced mic pre's. I'm not sure about the durability of this unit, as it went staright from the box to my rack.

I am really impressed with this entry level mic pre. Do I love it? Nah however I am in extreme like with this joint. It gets the job done what more can you ask for.
