Neve Portico or A-Designs MP2???

[StuartMac]

I haven't heard the Portico, but I got an MP2 recently and it is sublime. It has been fantastic for male vocals (haven't used it for female vocals yet but I'm sure it will shine) and a surprisingly excellent bass DI.

It also LOOKS great.

I doubt many people here have A/B'd the two but the MP2 is great for vocals. It's my current go-to for that application up against API, Daking, Calrec, Vintech, Avalon etc.

FYI - I have a used MP2R for sale ... 1800.00 usd (retails for $2595) - this is the higher gain version - perfect MINT MINT 1 yr old condition.

I listed it last week on ebay ... my relist this tues eve.
Selling strictly for financial reasons )-:

I can get a new MP2 for $1400.00. Why are you selling yours?

It's an "R" not a regular MP-2
