ua 6176

Has anyone replaced those?



Since my unit was made in 2005 I figure it nay be a good idea?



Thanks

hello,



i have a Avalon VT-737SP, and i wanna other warm pre sound.



i think the atack of 6176 (20ms) is a little slow for vocals ?

(i wanna other pre to record vocals)



what you think ?

Hi, I'm a little worried. I bought my UA 6176 a couple of months ago and I love it. But the little light in the middle has never worked. So I finally picked up a light bulb that looked similar and stuck it in there. When I turned it on the bulb popped and the unit shut down. No big deal, I pulled out the fuse and sure enough it was fried.

Hello,



I bought yesterday a NEW preamp 6176, not second hand!



But there was somthing inside that was making noise when I was moving it like a screw or something like that.



I wanted to be sure and then I opened the box.



First I found the stuff inside, a 2mm piece of metal but I don't know what it is :

anybody have any opinions on a mic that would go well with the UA 6176? I would mostly be using it for male vocals in pop/rock/alternative styles. also some female vocals. what do you think?

thanks for the replys!

Moving closer to purchase, seriously looking at the UA6176. I do Gospel, Urban, Hip hop , Rap, etc. I currently have a Focusrite ISA428 as my frontend. Looking at the UA to augment the ISA (offer color options). I've heard it and liked the way it brought out my SP C-1 mic(also looking to add a SoundeluxU-195 and a AT4060).

I'm still toiling over what "all in one" unit to get. I've narrowed it down to two, but if you have any other great suggestions feel free to throw them in.

I'm looking at the 6176 and find it a great idea that you can seperate the compressor and use it with other mic preamps. Are there any other high-end "Combo" / "Channel strip" type units out there that can seperate the compressor?

Hello, i dont know what to buy if the 737 or the 6176 ?



Whos the best, or who has the best pre.amp, the best compressor or the best EQ.

thanks

I'm looking for a mic preamp / compressor with character and the UA 6176 looks good. I have an LA audio VP-1 (British) which has valve or solid state mike pre and fab EQ but the compressor stinks, (as does the expander). Problem is it doesn't really warm the sound when pushed but goes straight to awfull distortion.
