The history of the 1073 goes back forty years, to May of 1970, when one era ended and another began. On May 8, the Beatles released their final album, Let It Be, and two days later, Rupert Neve released the original 1073 microphone pre-amplifier with EQ. It remains the most desirable Class A discrete transistor mic preamp to this day.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eFormed in 1961, Rupert Neve \u0026amp; Co. was focused from the beginning on designing and building the highest quality professional audio components. After establishing itself in the marketplace, and moving from Rupert's house to a newly built factory in Melbourn, England, Neve went on to create three of its most iconic products: the 2254 Compressor\/Limiter in 1968, the 1073 Mic Pre\/EQ in 1970, and the 1081 Mic Pre\/EQ in 1973.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eAimed at the broadcast market, these units were found in numerous custom-built Neve consoles of the day. And because so much of their work was customized, there are many variants on the basic 2254 Compressor and 1073 Mic Preamp, including different form factors, cosmetics, components and features.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eUsing Class A discrete, transistor designs, meticulously hand-wired and built to last, Neve became the world standard for excellence in broadcast and recording studio consoles. From the small-format BCM10 and Melbourn mixers, to the large-format 80 Series, these consoles continue to be treasured today, while standalone modules from them can be found in the racks of the best studios all over the world.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 38, 38); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eTo this day, the most important Neve products from the late 60s and early 70s are still manufactured according to the original specs. The reason is obvious - no other gear has that ‘Neve sound’, and there is no substitute for the real thing.\u003cli\u003epass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Neve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450730180711,"sku":"157234","price":8750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/neve-1089-1073-bae-conversion-mic-pre-eq-sa239-vintage_157234_1_256eb80b-c8b3-49eb-8fea-6a0e8f62442f.jpg?v=1787094283","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/neve-1089-1073-bae-conversion-mic-pre-eq-sa239-vintage","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
