Two, when I do get feedback about any of Avalon's compressors, whether it be the 737, 747, or the 2044, people say the EXACT same thing. "The damn thing works too slow." So when you hear it that much, you tend to shy away from units that gets consistantly, bad feedback.

Can anyone say anything good about the 747 or the 2044, because I'm looking for a compressor only, not a strip. Keep hearing a lot about those damn, Distressors. Might have to pick up one in dual channel.
You want a compressor that you will never replace,, Look at MANLEY hands down the nicest compressor I have heard ever, the key to it is the same technology that made the fairchild a classic... all there compressors are tubes, fat sound FAT FAT FAT... tell um Diz sent you
