Yeh, something like that probably. Though, we have to keep some perspective on it. We're talking about a stereo version of a comp that would likely cost A few thousand mono from the store, so problbly $5K worth of store bought comp. A pair of Retro 176's would put you back $6K.

I may wait for that one, though I'll have to probably build some stuff on consigment in order to build up the bucks to buy the parts. But it would definitely make a monster mix bus compressor, along with the various other mono duties it would be great for.
