| I got a Good harmonic distortion from it, cheep too, couldn't believe this pre cost so little, I got a great river 73pre and it took a while to differ the two, sounded very close. Posted by JImmi freshh on Feb 5, 2013 | |||

| I use this Preamp in my Home Studio alongside a Focusrite ISA One, and 2 UA 710s... Most people have a hard time telling the difference between them. You can tell the difference if you have a good ear. The 710's are $830 each, The ISA One $550, and the Pre 73 $350... you do the math! I've had good results with Mics from an SM57 to an SM7B to a C414XLii to a TLM 103... all work quite well with this unit. Great Buy! Posted by Ryan on Jan 20, 2013 | |||

| Great sounding unit, when it's not on fire. I bought this Pre-73 MK2 at the Vancouver store, had it running for 10 minutes feeding a CAD M179, I go to change a setting and to my horror, smoke is bellowing out of every hole! Of course I unhook it and rush outside to let it air out, all while thinking - this must be how they get that sound!
Anyway, I'm going to return it and try to avoid GA-Projects from now on.
Given my experience with this unit I DO NOT RECOMMEND it, well, only if you want you insurance premiums to go up.
I understand if many people have had good results, but IMHO if quality control is that weak where they ship units that catch fire within minutes, it's not worth the risk. Posted by anonymous on Dec 14, 2012 | |||
