IMHO!

Seems to be moot or rather late, the new Portico at about $1500 sounds and works enuff like the real deal to not warrant buying expensive clones that are all over. Even the TapeOp review this month pretty much said the same thing.

I mean if I wanted Neve sound I sure wouldn't buy any expensive older unit or modern clone when I can get the same sound for less and new with a warranty. The high pass on the Portico rocks not to mention the silk button.
