Description

The 1073 Legend Lives in Warm Audio's Splendid WA73 The legendary 1073 wrote the book on characterful mic preamplification. This venerable circuit helped define the punchy sound of '70s rock — and countless recordings and live concerts ever since. Today, this coveted tone can be yours for a song, with the Warm Audio WA73 mic/line/instrument preamp. In both design and performance, the WA73 pays homage to the revered British console lineage that started it all. Throughout the audio industry, the 1073 is considered the holy grail of preamps, with a rich, sweet, and bold tonality that's ideal for making audacious statements with your music. After years of R&D, painstaking reverse-engineering, and countless hours of listening, Warm Audio captured the sonic essence of this classic perfectly in their boutique WA73. With 80dB of gain and a fully discrete transformer-balanced signal path, the sound is a revelation: harmonically rich bottom end, focused

  • Versatile High quality preamp!
The WA Pre73 sounds great! Used on vocals, drums, bass and guitars so far and it has great versatility with the tone switch. I was really surprised how much better bass sounded going through it in the instrument mode. Well worth every penny!

  • Didn't work with any of my condenser mics
I couldn't get any meter reading or output when using any of the 3 condenser mics i own. Worked ok with dynamic mics and line input. I sent it back.

  • Thanks
It was used and there was a piece on the inside lose. I put it back in place. But other than that on schedule.
