Here is a unique Siemens WV10 pre amp. It was made in the 1950's.The sound is stunning. It has huge transformers , large capacitors and two tubes in there.Made at a similar time to the famous V76 mic pre's. But this mic preamp is also unique because it DOESN"T have negative feedback and so it has ALLOT more fuller sound. It has more harmonic's than Neve's and API's and most preamps which us negative feedback in the circuits.....its a rich sound - almost like tape compression. Even putting something through it from a track in your computer it adds some mojo.It has allot of gain, i dont know how much, but i kept it on low the whole time. It also has Polarity switches.Its plugin and play. Comes with XLR connectors and power cable.
