So do you all think that installing that transformer into the GB preamp would significantly improve the sound?

Chance, any thoughts on this?
 
what about the input transformer? i have an original st. ives input transformer from a neve.
 
In and out with Carnhill and the like, now that you have the inputs and
if they fit for the circuit -you´ve half done ;-)

New User Console Item....thoughts, suggestions?

There were several new people registered for the group buy today. This got me to thinking about something that I wanted to run by you here and get your feedback on.

My thinking was to add a new section to the main page in the User Console that would be labeled: "Latest Group Buy News". In this section, it would list the "latest" mass email that Chance sends out... Just below that there would be a button that would be labeled: "View ALL Group Buy News". By clicking this button, you could do just that, view all the mass emails that have been sent by Chance, sorted from the latest/newest, to the oldest...

Reason for me wanting to add this was, let's say someone registered "late" and missed a few of the mass emails. In this section, they could view all of those entries...

Of course, Chance will have the option when he sends the mass emails whether or not to include a particular message in this queue or not...but I'm sure that most of them would be there...

Just wanted to get everyone's thoughts and suggestions before I did this...

If we decide to add it, I'll wait until later tonight/early morning hours to take the system down for about 15 minutes while I make the database additions to store these new messages/mass emails.

Thanks in advance,

Randy

the neve 1073, 1081, and 1084 have the same preamps, just different EQ sections.

The 1073 and 1084 have the same pre but the 81 is a different beast. I'm not sure if the ACMP 81 reflects that difference.

Here's what Geoff Tanner has to say:

this will need to be short because I'm typing with grubby hands... I'm working on my car.

the 1084 is a rolls royce 1073 with switchables highs, hi-q on mid, and hp + lp filters.

All the 10** 283 + 284 based channel amps worked with two fixed gain input amplifiers preceded by (and at high gains followed by) a stepped attenuator.

the 1081 is totally different as it uses a single input amp (338) for all gains. So it's a switched gain amp with the feedback ratios manipulated in the sensitivity switch. All the eq stages are active (6 individual amps total including hp/lp) whereas the 1073/84 have only two eq active stages. The 340 output amp is class AB.

These are the general differences... sorry I can't type more but my keyboard is getting very messy!

Kind regards

I think it's a smart idea.

I have a few questions. Much thanks to anyone that knows the answers.
1. What's the difference between Class A and Class AB?
2. Can the Group Buy 84's eq be bypassed so it sounds just like a 73?
3. Do we know if the 81 is actually based on the 1081 or is it a 1084 with the extra eq knob?

Good idea, as long as it's only available to people who are logged in -- otherwise, the "veiwership" of the emails expands, and that's probably not what we want.

This is good info, although any of these are OK for me,
2 of the 73 type ordered at the moment.

Sounds great. This would be a nice place for you guys to post all important info/updates. Then no one would be lost where we are in the process.

Gearsltuz didn´t see this as the thread was locked in an
instant but now some have noticed this via a mic question.
