I own and have owned lots of high end pres, and the 1073lb is one of my favs I bought a pad cable from a fellow slut who makes these (cant recall his name right now? ) The 10 db you can reduce the ouput does not cover the amount of distortion I think sounds best, without clipping. I feel that the 1073 really shines when pushed. There ends my relating it to its lineage. The same, minus some gristle from old components and noise. Jeff at vk said that conpared to a vintage unit he owns the lb sounds Though I have worked on material tracked thru an original. I have had a chance to record electric guitar and snare and voice.Īt moderate gain levels it was clean with a nice sense of depth I have heard in recordings with original neve 1073, in fact more reminiscent of this quality then other clones I've heard.(to my ears) The silkscreen on the metal and the undercoat look nice in my opinion. A dedicated button would have been preferred agreed, though knowing this is the design I will probably never engage it accidentally. Some have voiced concern about the p48 engaging as a push in on the output knob.
I got my 1073lb a a few weekends back and thought i'd share my thoughts.
