The C1 (2254 style comp) looks nice. I wonder how this compares to the Chandler LTD-2? I have always wanted to try Neve type compressors but could never afford the entrance fee so maybe now I can.

I don't know who's the man behind Vintage Design, but I know it's a Swedish company...

I have two vintagedesign CA73's, had them for like 4 years now.

I've posted about them, including a short soundclip of acoustic guitar, in this thread:

from the Mercenary website about the stereo compressor

"... the CL1 MK-II is a man's compressor for the most critical of applications... "

no boys, girls or women are allowed, I guess.

That compressor is the best I have ever used for a real panty wetter ballad vocal so I guess no boys or girls or women should use it unless they want to wet their panties.
