Just an amazing neutral, dynamic and accurate preamp. Incredible mids and no coloration and rolloffs. You are hearing the real recording. Have tried more expensive preamps but the Fet10E just flat out beat them.

While i've never heard or seen one, i have no doubt in my mind that it will hang with the best of them. Sean >
