I'm getting down to some small project pieces from the Record Plant in NYC. This is an Altec 1566a mic pre amp that I got from the Record Plant, I bought this with two others two were complete and had been modified by the Record and this one which hadn't been completed but was started. These were used in Studio A out in the live room for mic pre amps that could be used close to the microphones. The mods that were done were to improved the sonic quality and included a high quality Allen Bradley pot, a different pilot light, and various improvements in capacitors, Triad input and output transformers, and a meter that could be switched for input or output. Those were sold a while ago but I kept this as I was hoping to finish it. The other two that were complete sounded amazing, I've used a ton of these and these were light years better sounding. I would love to complete this and use it but I don't have the time and I need the space (no matter how small). This is a project that will take some work but is well worth finishing not to mention there is a lot of history behind this piece.
