The original 1073 has been used on countless recordings, and many consider it to be the ultimate preamplifier for capturing rock and roll mojo. Warm Audio's WA73 is a faithful recreation of that classic British tone, and at a fraction of the cost of the original or many of the countless reissues that exist today. 80dB of gain and a fully discrete balanced signal path that incorporates a Carnhill transformer, the WA73 is perfect for dialing in tone during both the recording and mixing stage. Pair it with just about any microphone and listen to it sing today!
