A different take here. Besides the disasterous 81 series consoles, this is the worst sounding Neve desk. Very dark, very thick. No air. David Pope designed it after Rupert left. The reason for the "V" name is it was named after the head designer, DP. They couldn't call it the "Pope" for the real Vatican would not approve, so they shortened it to "V".

Now you know the "Rest of the Story".
