Neve 1073DPX - Dual 1073 Preamp/EQ - B-Stock

Neve 1073DPX - B-Stock

The Neve 1073DPX is a dual channel Preamp and EQ that adopts the same 1073 Class A Design, legendary 3-band EQ and high pass filter. Perfect for a variety of stereo micing setups such as piano and drum overheads. Alternatively, with two 1073 preamps in one unit, the DPX makes an excellent choice for multi-micing scenarios such as kick and snare, acoustic guitar and vocals.

This unit is B-Stock and has been used in our showroom. Its in great condition and fully tested and working. It is covered by a full warranty.

The 1073DPX provides the same classic tone and thanks to the exclusive Marinair transformers on the microphone input, line input and line output stage. Coupled with the three-band inductor-based EQ, the 1073DPX can process a range of sources with the classic NEVE sound.

The Class A design 1073 microphone preamplifiers feature three bands of EQ: one fixed high-frequency band, two switchable bands with cut and boost capability, and a high-pass filter. The Neve 1073 mic pre and EQ combination adds warmth and depth to recordings, brings out subtle ambience, maintains spatial positioning, and more effectively captures a precise image. That’s why the 1073 mic preamp is considered by many to be the very essence of the Neve sound.
