For further comparison, here are two acoustic guitar clips using different guitars with the M149, also with a DW Fearn for both. One clip is mono, the other stereo. I *think* they're unprocessed.
The stereo sample sounds quite nice, but again, to my ears it has quite an "overtubey" mark made by Fearn ... For a moment I was considering Fearn while choosing a new preamp some time ago but now I am happy I chose Pendulum ... But, of course, YMMV
