Sold it
Blickfanger 21.12.2010
After trying to get some use out of the 710 Twin-Finity for some time I decided to sell it. There are a few reasons that made me do so:

- it is a good preamp for a beginner, with no other outboard preamps. I have many preamps, so it wasn't really an interesting addition. The 710 does not have any special character.

- the solid state side of the 710 is very clean (a good thing in my opinion), but the tube side is also very clean, to a point that I could hardly hear the difference on many sources.

- when pushed into distortion it would start to sound harsh and raspy, not nicely adding warm harmonics. From a tube preamp you would expect the opposite.

- the self noise of the 710 was not as low as I would like (for classical and acoustic recordings). There are better options in this field from makes at similar costs per channel.

The guy who bought it from me was very happy with it though, as I asked half the price of a new one and it was in a pristine state, as I had hardly used it. When used as a clean preamp only it is very good, so he got himself a good piece for a pleasant price.

Ideal for your professional studio.

I bought Twin Finity on recommendation and I am very satisfied. The mix of tube and transistor is very functional. I use it in my studio for vocals, dubbing, drums and guitar recordings. I'm planning on buying another one recently. Would highly recommend.

Great preamp from a great company
Anonymous 15.01.2017
So I got this for a very good price and I think it is a great product indeed. I have two naow and I use them for bass recording, acoustic guitar and sometimes for overheads. A liitle on the transparent side but you can add some sweet tube drive from the blend knob. Gain stag is funny and it takes a bit of tweaking. Overall a great preamp!

Genius piece of kit.
Jim Rajan 24.01.2018
I've had this for a couple of years now. It is so versatile and brings a genuinely beautiful colour to the sound. Worth every penny. This with a Rode Ribbon mic is making my work really shine and my recording have a depth of character that I haven't found elsewhere. Perfect if you want to seriously raise your game.
