Warm Audio WA273-EQ Dual-Channel British Mic Preamp with EQ
The Warm Audio WA273-EQ is a dual-channel version of the 73-style British console channel strip, known for its full, warm analog sound. Each channel offers 80 dB of gain on a stepped switch, a discrete, hand-wired signal path with UK-made Carnhill transformers and an inductor-based 3-band EQ with Blore Edwards dual-concentric switches.
The two independent channels can record two sources at once or two different microphone setups, each with its own EQ settings. Each channel also has a 4-position high-pass filter, switchable send/return inserts before the output transformer, 48 V phantom power, polarity inversion and the Warm Audio Tone button that changes the input transformer impedance.
