We do tons of VO work and my go-to chain is a TLM 103 through an Avalon 737SP. I typically don't compress it while recording but I will use the EQ section to tailor the output depending on the talent. If I need some compression while tracking I use a Crane Song Trakker. I know the 103 and the 737 don't get much respect around here, but we do plenty of work for very high profile clients and none have asked to swap out anything but the talent so far. If I'm mixing the project I'll process the VO then, otherwise I find most mixers would rather have a track that isn't overly compressed or EQ'd.
