AML Upgrade Kits for Amek Desk (console)

I viewed a thread today where a fellow slut was extolling the virtues of the AML 500 series mic pre's.

I have been thinking about their upgrade kit for my Amek BC2 recently and I wondered if anyone has had any experience with them and what their thoughts are ....

I'm going to get a couple of these kits after Chrimble anyway, because it's not exactly going to break the bank at £40 a pop, but I just wondered.....

Cheers.

I´ve installed and used these pres in a TAC Matchless. That was a big improvement, worth every penny. People pay 20x their price for a single preamp in the same sonic league.

If you're looking for a drop in improvment for the SSM2017, SSM2019, BB INA217 or that 1510, check out the PIP or plug in preamp. Those mic preamp chips are found in Toft consoles, DAV preamps, Trident S-20 preamps, AMEK Big's and Einsteins, D+R consoles and many others.

The preamp is -129.6 db EIN noise, 200k hz bandwidth, 3000 volt slew rate and 100 ma output current. THD is .0006%, IMD is .0002%.
