Seems like some are negative on the Vintech 1272, either because they're not really a real Neve 1272 or maybe something wrong with the sound...

I know the bottom-end is a little hyped and the mids can be crunchy, but they've been ok to really nice for me on elec guitar, bass DI, kick and snare... Not having a chance to use a real Neve to compare them, am I missing something here?
