Great entry preamp............if your looking for a little more with your preamp then this would be a great choice. It has led meter for both inputs and works good to plug your guitar also. Gives you the options of 1 or 2 mics and / or 1 mic and 1 instrument. The tube gets pretty hot and creates nice punchy warm sound!
Sound
Nice tube........warm and upfront
Features
Pros: Led's are cool for monitoring, it has nice sturdy knobs, metal casing, tube gets hot fast Con: Gets almost too hot to touch. Be sure to power down when not in use....won't hurt if you leave on though

First of all, I had an Alesis XT-20 (Tape version) old school, but most of these are in use today in recording studios. I plugged into direct input (bi-passed the mixer for hearing the sound) WOW! I don't need the mixer. The sound is so smooth, silky and warm. I just can't believe this item exist. I'm going to buy 3 more!
