Please, just the straight and skinny, I understand all about the variables that effect the final sound, and *nothing* will sound like a well tuned MCI except another MCI console. I just need a map to guide me towards that sound. I know the MCI 400 series have been described as punchy and creamy.

I'm thinking of getting another console for a small overdub room or for home, and was thinking of getting a MCI jh416. I know there's maintence and parts issues with it, but I was curious on opinions about the sound. Thanks
