Check the listing for details. BAE 1073MPL 500 Series Microphone Preamp. Condition: Very Good - Refurbished. Listed at 1080.00 USD. Classic 1073-style Pre The classic Neve 1073 wrote the book on characterful mic preamplification, so in designing their 1073MPL 500 Series mic/line preamp, BAE aimed high. It's amazing how well they succeeded. Done up in classic RAF blue-gray livery, the hand-wired, transformer-coupled, pure Class A 1073MPL is quite versatile, with 71dB of gain that lets you capture subdued sources with your favorite ribbon mic. Cranking the main gain stage enhances your tracks with tasty vintage-style coloration. Under the bonnet reside the finest components, such as Carnhill transformers — like those found in vintage 1073s. Also onboard: a DI jack, polarity reverse, 48V phantom power, and selectable impedance to optimally match a variety of microphones.
