Front Panel
The IGS NE573 500-Series Preamp's identical front panels and knobs are not rocket science, as the outside is the easiest thing to replicate. The true beauty of the IGS NE573 is in the circuit. The unit is operating using 24 volts, with IGS's own custom transformers on inputs and outputs, Grayhill switches and Motorola transistor on the output stage- just like the very first version of the original pre. The IGS NE573 500-Series Preamp is responsible for some of the best records ever!

Rabbit Hole - Very Happy
Apr 23rd 2023I have followed the white rabbit and I am in 500 series wonder land - I'll review 2 tubes (F609 and Retro 500 PRE) and 2 1073s (IGS NE573 and Golden Age PRE-573) 100% Honest when I placed my order for my first set of 4 500 series pres I did not realize I had two 1073 clones in my cart but the comparison be tween both is interesting. The IGS is solid feeling and has a nice weight to it everything about this unit says quality. The comb jack is a welcome add. The sound is extremely pleasing and little forward. I have used this on the Kick front and as a DI and both sounds have been winners. Very happy with this purchase.

IGS NE573 500-Series Preamp
Feb 24th 2020This unit does exactly what it's advertised to do. I have never used a real NEVE so I can't state how similar it sounds to one but it sounds fantastic. I recorded my RODE NTK that had been collecting dust the last few years and it sounded WAY more expensive. Great modern vocal sound.
