Four Channels of 1073-Style Preamps with "Essential EQ"!

The Vintech Audio 473 features four 1073-style microphone preamplifiers for less than the price of one vintage 1073! The 473 includes "essential EQ" on every channel. Vintech calls the high and low shelving EQ adjustments "essential" because they really help to enhance certain instruments and impart a certain magic to the sound like a vintage Neve 1073. Frequency choices are 3.2kHz and 12kHz for the highs and 60Hz and 220Hz on the low shelving but can be special ordered at other practical frequencies. Each channel also offers an input sensitivity adjustment allowing up to 70db of gain, an input impedance switch, a mic-line switch, an instrument input and switches for phantom power, phase reverse and EQ on or off.

Requires an external power supply.

Vintech Audio 473 Features:

Class A, all discrete, transformer balanced circuitry
"Essential EQ" on every channel
Impedance adjustment and direct instrument inputs
Custom-machined aluminum knobs

What Does "Special Order" Mean?

A special-order product is one that we don't normally keep in stock. We order it from the manufacturer as soon as you order from us. We have great relationships with all the manufacturers we carry, so we can get your special order to you as fast as or faster than anyone else.
