Quad Eight Pre

Postby Aearth » Fri Oct 27, 2006 9:10 pm

Well I just bought my first piece of vintage gear, a pair of racked Quad 8 preamps with EQ MM312. I haven't received them or heard them, I bought them on pure reputation alone. But if they are as good or as close to the A-Designs Pacifica pres, I'm happy.
Just being checked out by Rob from Mixmasters

Anyone else got these, what do you think of them?

I was recently talking to Tim Whitten about these, he is a huge fan and even runs stuff out through them when mixing. But I've never used them myself.
Be sure to let us know what you reckon!

No worries guys as soon as I get it I'll let you all know. I really wasn't in the market for this but it came up and the deal was too good to let go. I've been told by a few people, these are next 1073.
