Kurt Foster! have you heard GT The Brick?

Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2005 8:25 pm

I really want someone who has experience with high end gear to
give me their opinion on this pre. I'd like to know if it sounds 3 dimentional or if it sounds flat like budget pres.

it looks like it might be the first mid level pre thats worth its price tag.

thanks,

The Brick is one of the best deals going for a pro piece and a budget price. No, it is not even close to being the ViPre, but it is a very good sounding box. 3D can not come from a mic pre alone. And if you don't have decent monitoring, you won't ever hear 3D.

thanks for the reply audiogaff...

have you heard it against $100 pres like the presonus tubepre? if so how does it compare?

I haven't had the chance to check it out yet ... but I want to. I will contact GT and ask for a review unit ...

The Brick has the kind of construction and design approach that produces that 3 d effect we are all talking about lately .. but I cannot speak yet from any first hand experience. That being said, there are a lot of pres that I would not bother listening to simply based on the design and construction ... but the Brick is not one of them... It certainly bears listening to.
