BAE 1073D 500-series Mic Pre / EQ

1073 is by far the most legendary and beloved microphone preamp / eq, and for good reason. The ancestors go back to the early 1970s where Rupert Neve, in the opinion of many, invented "the Holy Grail" in recording with his 1073 preamp / eq.

BAE 1073D (Deluxe) is basically a 1073 in 500 format, as authentic and true to the original as it is at all possible when the format is to be 500-series. It uses the same St Ives (Carnhill) transformers as the originals, Elma switches and Canford wire - this is the real deal.
To accommodate all parts and not compromise, use a 3-space chassis.
