Warm Audio WA-73EQ

Warm Audio WA-73EQ Product Details

Description

The Warm Audio WA-73EQ is a single channel microphone preamplifier and induction coil EQ in the British 1073 style. The preamps of the WA73 family are boutique preamps that can be classified as studio and live workhorses at the same time. The classic 1073 circuitry is known as a versatile tool that harmonizes fantastically with all types of microphones, from condenser to dynamic to ribbon. The newly-released WA73 family is equally suited for all types of microphones and sources such as vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, bass, drums, percussion, orchestras, keyboards, and even as a sound shaping tool to perform partial or complete mixes. With 80 dB gain, a fully discrete balanced signal path equipped with high-quality Carnhill transformers, and a versatile 3-band inductor EQ (on WA73-EQ and WA273-EQ products), there's no recording, mixing or engineering task the WA73, WA73-EQ, WA273 and WA273-EQ can't handle and excite.
