2-channel mic preamp, $325 introductory price. Anybody know enough about it to have an opinion?

I'm fully qualified by 2008 standards, Nick - I know nothing about it and am therefore entitled to poontificate...

I love it. Simple, clean, and does what it says on the tin. LOL

I'm bummed out on this whole disaster too, John. This thing sure sucks big-time. I mean, is it even AU-compatible? :lol:

I doubt it-- it's a northern hemisphere device only, so would certainly be out of phase down under.

I tend to agree with your assertion, Nick. I mean, if it's down under it's surely going to be out-of-face, isn't it? LOL
