i actually feel the opposite, that the preamp and eq are the finer points to the 737 and the compression section leaves something to be desired.
as far as making quality vocal recordings with the 737, it definitely can be and has been done. i am sure there are hundreds of hit recordings on the books where the 737 was used for the vocal chain.
overall i am a fan of the 737 and don't really understand all the bashing that goes on regarding it. it doesn't have that Neve or API sound, of course, but why should we only have two flavours of preamplification?
