Why the heck do we use preamps anyway?

Say, 2 years from now, you luck into some sort of sweet high-end preamp...you think "Boy I wish I had had this thing at the 04 SCI NYE show!" - - Well...with my system - you can...just go back to your "mic master" and send the signal through your new pre...

well that says it all, hes a cheesehead

That's it, Bean, !  I'm keeping my 9Vs

Anyone hearing much about the new digital mics ?

The workshop at AES

Neumann's Solution-D

Looks like Georg Neumann's leading the way......

Gosh - looks like I'm not as crazy as I sound...

perhaps better reading comprehension skills... the neumann mic was mentioned by at least 2 other people in one of your other crazy threads.

why use a preamp? The answer is simple, to be able to spend more money so we can think our tapes are better. Plus the source info in a txt file is much more interesting with a preamp (and more) in there. Which is more interesting?

1) AKG 481>DAP1

or

2) MK4>KC5>CMC6>Lunatec V3>Benchmark AD2k+>VXpocket V2>Sony Vaio C1VPK.
