UTILIZATION

Enfantin not need to read the manual, very succint the way ... From

SOUND QUALITY

heavy ... This preamp is colored, it has its very own paw, transparency is not his forte, but we do not buy it for that. It enhances the low end brilliantly, gives his "compact" without drooling on the lower medium, the lamps can make themselves more or less subtle depending on the settings "gain" and "level" ... Do not hesitate to test the color of his is "sculptable" at will .... What a breath?? That of a machine lamp, very discreet, non-existent except when all rule "over 11" ... Used

OVERALL OPINION

last few years, bought 2 years ago now, in addition to others, Fearn, Avalon, SSL, Focusrite ... The instrument is very endearing personality with a real sound, blues, rock suits him perfectly, the string instruments (guitars, violin, harp same ...) are really well developed, heat, "timber" are very well rendered ... On a snare drum, it gives depth, with the voices, this key vintage is unavoidable in some styles ...
2 comments anyway: it is anything but neutral (but that's why we bought it ...), it supports badly ill microphones (it amplifies these defects ...), on the other hand with U87, the fact that a KMS105 for the stage, very interesting, Beta 98 (snare) I love, C414 Thiers it inflates slightly down, it's pretty awesome ... even

For its qualities essential in a good studio for his faults (which are not true ...), not suitable for all home-studio ... Versatility is not really his thing, but what it does well, few others do it with such enthusiasm ... A quality / price (we attack the high end ...), for the bluesman, a must for me, an essential ... Beautiful personality
