The Heritage Audio 1073/500 is just as it states the Heritage 1073 set in a 500 Series rack format. It does take three 500 series spaces in your rack so be aware that it is a slot hog.  If you already own a 500 series rack Heritage gives you an affordable way to get as close to the "Holy Grail" as you can without the risk of vintage equipment. We are constantly searching for gear that has a unique character that it imparts on the audio that you pass through it and Heritage Audio does just that, gives you very close to the vintage Neve sound at 1/4 to 1/3 of the price of the vintage original 
We are a newly authorized Heritage Audio dealer located between Chicago and Milwaukee. We are a Pro Audio Dealer as well as a four control room Neve & SSL equipped commercial recording studio with several engineers that have from five to twenty five years of experience in the industry. So who better to trust with your equipment purchases than guys who are tracking, mixing and using the gear on a daily basis. The Heritage Audio gear is as close to the original as we have found with a Class-A all discrete component design.
We ship our orders out quickly, and provide experienced advice and great service should you have any problems. Thank you for looking at our auction.The info from Heritage AudioWhen we came with the idea of making our 1073 version in an API VPR series 500 module, first thing we noticed was how many compromises our competitors had to assume to fit their repros in such a small package.
We decided to make exactly zero compromises on ours. This meant making a 3u wide module capable of holding all three vintage accurate transformers, dual concentric switches , pushbuttons and same exact PCB cards. Exactly what the name says. No downsized knobs. No transformers left out. No ICs in place of discrete class A circuitry. Just what the faceplate says: a 1073 in a 500 series format.
• 70dB Class A Microphone preamplifier, HI-LO selectable minimum input impedance, balanced and floating. High gain positions show a higher impedance, ideal for old ribbon mics. 
• 10dB Class A Line Amplifier, Bridging input impedance, balanced and floating. 
• Class A, single ended, 2N3055 driven high headroom output stage.
• High Frequency: +/-16dB shelving at 12 kHz, Baxandall type. 
• Low Frequency: +/-16dB with selectable frequency shelving of 35Hz, 60Hz, 110Hz & 220Hz, Baxandall type. 
• Mid Frequency: +/-18dB peaking, fixed 'Q' , selectable center frequencies of 0.36kHz, 0.7kHz, 1.6kHz, 3.2kHz, 4.8kHz , and 7.2kHz , dual inductor based. 
• High Pass Filter: 18dB per octave slope, switchable between 50Hz, 80Hz , 160 Hz & 300Hz, inductor based.
• EQ Button: Switches the equalizer on or off. 
• Phase Button: Flips phase 180º.
 • Microphone input impedance: HI, 1200 Ohm minimum, LO, 300 Ohm minimum. Higher gain positions gradually have greater impedances, optimum for lo gain ribbon mics. Input is transformer balanced and floating.
• Line input impedance: 10KOhms bridging, transformer balanced and floating.
• Output impedance: Less than 75 Ohms, transformer balanced and floating, to drive a load of 600 Ohms.
• Maximum output: Greater than +26dBm into 600 Ohms, greater than +32dBu into 10KOhms.
• THD: Less than 0.025% at 1Khz, Less than 0.05% at 100Hz.
• Frequency response :20Hz (+0.3dB) to 20Khz (-0.2dB)
