Selling "AS IS" pair of BAE 1073's with brand new updated PSU. Both units are in fine working condition and sound amazing! (2) 19" 1u mic pre/EQ with 1 brand new power supply which powers both. The modules are the original ones BAE sold under the Brent Averill branding. Some say these units are more desirable than the newer ones.
PLEASE READ! Original owner from 2007. We bought this pair of units for my commercial recording studio. It was always stored in my smoke free studio rack. It was my "go to" preamp/EQ for tracking. Sounds amazing just like a vintage original Neve 1073. It's in great working condition and comes with the updated Power Supply BAE now offers. It does have some "minor" rack wear but my camera will not pick it up in photos. On each unit, the 48v lamp lightbulb doesn't light but YOU could simply replace the bulbs; however, it doesn't affect the phantom power, it works 100%!!! It's just lightbulbs! And really, it doesn't affect operation..So who cares?!? This auction is the best deal out there right now on a pair of BAE 1073's. If you want one with 48v lights then you can pay $6k for a pair of brand new ones. Please ask any questions you might have before bidding. Detailed info below. SHIPPING package will be heavy with both units and the PSU. Buyer to pay shipping & handling for FedEX Ground service with insurance and direct signature required. Will ship the items after PayPal funds are received and cleared, no longer than 2 business days after payment is made. Thank you and good luck! ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// The BAE (formerly Brent Averill Enterprises) 1073 preamp yields a really fat sound. It seems to add subharmonics to the low end which makes the bottom end sound huge. It smoothes the top end, giving the highs a silky sheen. The BAE 1073 slightly compresses transients, as well. It is a smooth, fat, larger than life sound. An added bonus is to use the front-panel DI inputs to fatten samples and synths and instruments. Balanced line-level inputs on the rear allow for fattening and punching up entire mixes, or in a signal chain with other +4 gear. The B.A.E. 1073 equalizer is very broad-banded and musical. It has a hi-pass filter with four frequencies- 50 Hz, 80 Hz, 160 Hz and 300 Hz. The low frequency band is shelving and has four frequencies - 35 Hz, 60 Hz, 110 Hz and 220 Hz. The low end of this equalizer is so tight that you can boost 220 Hz and not muddy up the sound. The mid band has six frequencies - 360 Hz, 720 Hz, 1.6 kHz, 3.2 kHz, 4.8 kHz and 7.2 kHz. The bandwidth is broad so you can boost or cut a lot without making things sound processed or unnatural. The hi band is shelving and is fixed at 12 kHz. It is smooth and silky and a little goes a long way. Features: Made from an authentic reproduction of a Neve™* 1073 module Hi-Z direct inputs on the front panel 48v phantom power on the front panel Balanced mic input, line input and balanced +4 output from XLR connectors on the rear of the module Output level control functions as fader when going straight to tape Modules are mounted horizontally and take up only one rack unit each Oversize power supply provides four times the current needed for optimum sound quality
