Replica of a Classic!

Since 1997, Vintech has been manufacturing quality pro audio gear based on original classic designs that have become standards in the industry. The X73 is a single-channel microphone preamp/equalizer based on the renowned 1073 channel strip module, with the original circuit design, the same polystyrene capacitors and the same transformers, ensuring that the X73 sounds exactly like the old 1073...back in the day, when the Neve unit was brand spanking new!

You need a power supply for the X73. See the X73 Power for the power supply.
