If you want to use the preamps and they suck, that would be a problem!

Well, at the vary least this thing could replace my SD 702t in my bag.  That would save space and weight, while eliminating the need for compact flash card.  And given the price point, how can you really complain?!

That is certainly one of my main concerns.

That's actually most of our concerns.  Guess we'll find out soon enough.

If I didn't have some new bills pop up I would totally be the guinea pig for this recorder. I have no doubts they're able to improve the "performance" of their preamps (ie they'll be measurably quieter) but I am curious if the intended use of being a dialogue recorder results in a not-very-musical sound. I think the Sound Devices MixPre recorders (subtly) suffer the same fate. Great noise performance but the mids are just "off" to my ears. Time will tell, anyone here bite the bullet? Pr-4 results could be indicative of the new PR-2 ii performance as well....

Deity, the longest product launches I have ever seen.  This is why I didn't preorder.
