PCB and sorted (!) And marked with AML, the English supplier components. Ultra clear pattern to use, no need to book.Ĭolour Book Manufacturing. Micro level preamp / or line level (2 separate 2 XLR inputs on the back) + a walkout EQ section The mic preamp is a replica of the legendary 1073 Mr. Bought on the advice of two large sound engineers-sounds, no regrets! Just one small problem: No Power switch so remember to unplug utilisation.sinon ask you out, it's just the best way to get you the Neve sound without breaking the bank so delusional. ).Īnd finally, I found laudatory articles in the place of Ez 1073: Same pattern as the original 1073, transformers Carnhill Class A input and output, unbeatable price, Preamp + EQ and two mic inputs (48v) and line. Finally I started to ogle clones but then again, so many contradictory messages for the most known (BAE, Aurora and others. ) or LB or Model 500 which purists say they sound less fat than the original. I had to spend a good year to scour the internet to buy a Neve 1073, alas disillusionment: Either a vintage overpriced (with the risk that the model purchased slap in the following two years. If I had to define the sound of EZ 1073: Large dynamic output, very very punchy and perfect to bring to life synths or monotonous voice a little slender. Purchased in August 2013 so much had time to experience the "beast". Trim output adjustment (not serrated) to finely adjust the output level. CheersĮQ section with the same points as the Neve 1073 EQ I can't belive i have such a great addition to my studio for that cheap. No harshnes, tons of dynamic and that classic Neve cruncy "smoked" sound. For that cheap i doubt you can find something better, and also in the expensive range of stuff. I need to test it better but first impression often are real to me. That was a vibe i had never felt with any other pre. The sound is so warm, a bit compressed like if you had it thru a fat, tube compressor but very natural, just so smoth. I just tested singing into it in my Beyerdynamic DT 880 headphones thru a Dangerous Source. This is my first real 1073 with eq preamp, i have some 500 clones.
I have preamps from: Thermionic Culture, Chandler, Api, Dakings and more. Very difficoult going wrong unless you are doing it in rush. I had built many units, Hairball, Capi, Soundskulptor and other difficoult stuff. You don't need to look for anything, you can't go wrong. First of all a few words on the quality of the product: components are very high quality, extremely well organized, not even a nut is cheap, all is divided into bags with value and all the infos about the components, all resistors are already cutted and bended and organized in the box from the first to the last. I just wanted to make sure they power up. I just built up two AML 1073 rack units and quickly tested today without even calibrating it.
