Any Hi-End mastering studio monitor and preamp and poweramp recommend?

I am using Dynaudio acoustic M3 and ADAM S5A before,
I want to upgrade my equipment

Is there an acceptable dual mic preamp I can get for under $200? I need it to have a meter. thanks.

hi there...

according to some reviews that i have been reading here i decided to sell my dbx 586 dual vacuum tube preamp that i used as main preamp for recording vocals...

as i have heard, there are better ones out there for the same money...

so which one up to a max of 700 bucks would you recommend ?

I'm working on a classified project for NASA to evaluate the possibility of detecting, remotely, whether it is possible to detect, the sound of a tree falling in a forest on earth from outer space. The classified orbital height will be 262,000 miles, embedded in a classified location on a large orbital body code-named "luna" (don't tell anybody!).

I'm looking to get a new Mic Pre or compressor unit pretty soon and I wanted to know what gives that similar british flair for about $500 or under? I have a Joemeek VC3Q that I like alot. I was thinking about the RNC but it's pretty transparent. I might still pick one up but what other options do I have?

Thanks

I've seen a few kits on the net that you can get for around a thousand dollars that are supposed to be API and Millennia copies. The circuit design looks very simple especially on the MM-990. its an epoxy molded gain circuit that needs a power supply and phantom power + a rack box.

I've seen quite a few threads about pre's and noticed most of the fuss is over their character or sound. I assume that most good pre's have some sort of special circuitry enhanced by industry vets as their signature series. My question is, are there any other means of obtaining a sweet sound without spending $2000 or $3000 bucks on a signature series pre? And what pre's should I avoid?

Hello!

I would like to ask you what are your favorite 8 mic preamp channel sice I'm thinking on buying one and I would like to know opinions here. Low or high budget, does not matter.

Thanks !

Are Sytek preamps about the same as RNP preamps sound and quality wise? I noticed that you can get 4 ch of sytek mpx-aii for under $1000 which puts in in the same price class as RNP-
