    Vintage 1073s used different transformer variants throughout their production run; but the most coveted were the very first ones made by Marinair Radar, due to their fluid and forgiving nature that saturates sweetly when pushed. They have been known to bring engineers to tears when they hear how gorgeous their mixes sound through them! Warm Audio turned to Carnhill Transformers of Cambridgeshire, UK, to design meticulous replicas of these most desirable early 1073 transformers. The results are stunning, and - to our ears - tantalizingly close to early vintage 1073s.

    The vintage flavour of shorted tantalums, is a flavour to avoid :-) With that much real-estate on the front panel, WA could have chosen to spoil us, with a 15 LED strip :-)

      Have the red knob at 30db or 40db and play with the out put to your liking for volume adjustment. Also set the blue knob at 80khz roll off to get rid of low frequency's you don't need in your vocal

      Hi, Alton. Thanks for reaching out with your question. The WA73 mic pre would work well in a live setting. How it will react will also depend on the rest of your signal chain. If you want to talk specifics, give me a call!

    WA47 is much better than U81Ai, isn't it?
