Today, this coveted tone can be yours for a song, with the Warm Audio WA273 mic/line/instrument preamp. In both design and performance, the 2-channel WA273 pays homage to the revered British console lineage that started it all.

This WA273 has 2 channels, and channel #2 was defect when i received it. Lower volume and unpleasant distortion on channel #2, Dont know if its bad QA check from WARM QA team or was damaged in the shipping.

This thing sounds fat just like the real Neve, but costs about half the price. Warm Audio is legit, I know a lot of professionals who swear by their stuff. I love the inputs on the front, and the line switch allows me to run it as an insert in my daw. I like to run my entire mix through this thing, but the gain must be very low or it distorts. But hit that sweet spot, and it makes your mix come to life.
