Post by: vwmule on June 08, 2007, 11:48:17 AM

Just got new mics, and they look terrific, but is pairing them with a wmod UA5 a good match?

iirc, i thought the warm mod was designed with the 480 in mind...
peanut butter and jelly

The w-mod UA5 to my ears is very similar to the transformer based sound of the M148, and as most will agree, thart is the ideal pre to run with 480s.

+T for the new mics
