Warm Audio WA73-EQ
Product information "Warm Audio WA73-EQ"
If there is one microphone preamplifier that professional sound engineers of all ages worship worldwide and that has shaped the sound of countless rock and pop albums of the last 50 years like no other, then it is definitely the 1073. The 1073 has been used like no other in studio and live applications for decades and is still considered the "Holy Grail" of microphone preamplification. The Warm Audio WA73 family offers one- and two-channel recreations of this classic British preamplifier (with & without induction coil EQ), all a careful and humble tribute to the original circuitry.
