Too bad this thread is so long now. There have been a number of posts about this but you would have to dig through quite a bit.
I've only compared the n12 pre's to my Joe Meek VC6Q and my Alesis mixer pres. There is a more open and airy sound that I find with the n12 compared to the Meek and more headroom. But I do like the Meek, just not as much as the n12. The Alesis pres are not terrible, they are just simply no match in any area compared the n12.
I do have a POD X3L which has some preamp models and surprisingly they are usable. But again, the n12 shines over them also.
