A classic preamp-eq in a modern package
The 1073 is likely to be the most famous pre-eq in the world. This time the guys at Heritage Audio have proposed a modern reissue which uses SMD technology mixed with classic transformers and inductors. The result is awesome. Big good sound, an always useful equalizer and a sensible price tag. Good for every thing just like its father with a very small difference with the original.
I use it either for tracking or mixing. It is good for voices and instruments with a special mention for the acoustic guitars. The D.I. input is not as good as others devices I own (namely the API 512C).
The external power supply does not seem to have effects on sound.
The unit is well built and reliable (even with the small torque selectors). I had no problem so far.

Just great <3
My first good pre.
This changes the game, in terms of audio quality but also because of how fun it is.
The eq changes the sound A LOT. It's almost impossible for me to bypass it when recording stuff.
Build quality is really great, and it's very easy to use.
The only "bad" thing I could say is that the sound, even though it's great, it might not be as good as the real thing.
But hey, just see the price of a real Nece 1073 and you'll come back here...
All in all, this is an essential if you want to get better at recording and producing. Love it.

Amazing unit
Not just impressive within its price bracket but a generally amazing unit.
I had this unit de-racked on some foam for my intitial testing/ playing around with it as I wasn?t convinced it would be great considering the price, but it was racked up within 5/10 minutes.
Only thing I don?t like about it is that I can only afford one!
