just saw this on the SOS YouTube channel, from AES NY, happening this weekend. Looks really cool!

Aloha friends,It's been a while. I'm looking for some different flavors in regards to mic preamp's. I've used the p-1 by A designs really loved it . Great prescense, not any real difference from the Pacifica which is cool , A little less mula

My question is what are some of people's experiences with other 500 series's gear and what applications have they used them on ?

Hey all - I have a Lindell 503 power chassis. I have been using a Phoenix DRS1R Preamp in the first slot for about 5 months now, no issues. I recently got an A designs P1 as well.

What's your current take on these two designs? My biggest concern would be in the PSU ( power supply unit) . Do you think yours is compromised to save space in comparison to the 19" rack model(s).
I have an 8 rack SPL Rackpack and love it. The PSU is huge, same one as with my Neos. Its built like a tank, but this particular rack is not built to host other 500 series products.

I'm still but a babe in the audio world, so needless to say I'm still growing into and learning to operate the gear I've got...but like any good gear nerd, I like to plot and plan for the future. My current thoughts are to buy a 10 slot lunchbox and gradually start adding 500 series preamps (probably some by Vintech and/or api but i'll leave that for another discussion).

500 series preamps are a pretty popular item for discussion around here. I thought I would start a thread on the racks that hold these units. I'm going to give it a go as a first shot and as new or better information comes in I will edit this first post to try and make a pretty comprehensive list of options.

In terms of a 500 series module made by whatever company (i.e. API/A Designs/Empirical). Can I use any module from any company in a Lunch box made by any company or do I have to buy the soap box that the company makes for the modules?

Thanks
