Amek CL-01 compressor limiter are they any good?

I have 2 of these units in the master section of an Angela mk1 board are they any good, how do they compare with the LA 4 and dbx 165A models.. The board is down at the moment and will take a while before up and running!

Pretty cool, fairly fast, not tons of character, decent for drums/perc, non essential ac gtr, ... Probably not your "go to" compressor, reminds me a little of a gain brain II.

Not $worth$ what either of those other two are. LA4a= thicker, s l o w e r, optical, good bass, BV vox.... DBX 165a = med fast, good bass, msic synths, decent vocal comp... I use my LA4a's more than my 165's... but that's me.
