Hi,
First of all a big greetz to all ! GREETZ !
(well it's kinda big :P)
Anyways I'm the new kid on the block and why not begin with a idiotic request :p:
I'm wondering if I could hear the difference between a good and a bad pre-amp ( or between 2 different pre-amp's ).

Dismantling a U87
Hi everyone
Is it difficult/risky to dismantle a U87? I don't want to do any damage, but I need to take a look at the innards. The outside is fairly bashed up, so I want to take a quick look to see what condition the insides are in.
Thanks
John Stafford

U87a on ebay. Beware!
Forums
I don't know if this is the correct place for this. There's a U87 on ebay #7314188125. #7312468271 sold yesterday is identical. They even have the same serial number 69064.
Beware!

Vintage Mid 70's Neumann U87 Mic
Forums
Hey guys need your expert opinion. I've stumbled across a Neumann 1970's era U87,.. now the grill is a bit beat up and it is 30 years old. .are there any concerns or "red flags" I should be on the look out for with a mic this old?. He's asking 1,600 for it is this a fair asking price?...I am somewhat aware of this Mic's brilliant reputation but everything has a shelf life.
