Not another 1073
Nov 11th 2024If you look at the specs this is clearly a 1073 ish take only this is the cleanest version you can find which I appreciate. It's like if the Grace M-101 had a baby with a 1073 pre. These don't ship in the wood box very well. Mine came with the rack ears shot through the sides. The power inlet won't accept the whole cable end. When racked its loose to the touch. For the price I felt like I got b-stock but I was assured they were new. Never heard back about this.
