The BAE 1073D 500-Series Preamp & EQ is based on the classic 1073 preamp but in a convenient 500-Series format.
The BAE 1073D 500-Series Preamp & EQ is essentially a 1073 module with extra high frequencies and a direct input for the 500 series market. Built using the same exact parts as the 10 series module, the 1073D features Carnhill transformers, Elma gold plated switches and Canford wire making this the best sounding Class A mic‐pre EQ module on the block. Because BAE did not want to compromise, the parts are such that they made this a 3 space wide module for optimal quality in contrast to building a smaller rack space version lacking the same premium components.
