Vintech Dual 72 vs. . UA 2108?

That's is, it's between those 2 now. I've seen many "this pre vs that pre" threads, here and on other forums, but yet these 2 battle it out. As far as I can tell, they have very similar specs and are similarily priced at around $1400. Many will say they're both excellent units and it's gonna come down to the sound. The reviews are very favorable for both of them, from what I've read elsewhere.

UA 2192

Much talk about Apogee, Lucid, RME, and all the usual suspects in the mid-level/pro converters available. I did a search for this UA 2192 and found a dismal amount of opinions. I just got the new Sweetwater catalog (along with a new credit card, ouch...) and the irony is too strong to discount the intent of purchasing some new gear.

UA LA-610?

Funny, I just noticed this unit while browsing one of the online retailers, and forgive me if my lack of experience (w/top shelf gear) really shows here but, does it not seem like a killer deal for $1400? If a 6176 retails for $2200, it makes me wonder, did they cut any corners to achieve this?

LavryBlue - Universal Audio 2192

I really hate to ask this question..but I have no way to locally audition for myself. My setup is a Panasonic DA7, Eventide Eclipse.Kurzweil Rumour, Masterlink, Alesis HD24, 2 API 512c, Langevin DVC, Great River 1MNV. I do mostly R&B, Gospel, Funk. My questions are, has anyone used either of these converters. based on my info, which would you choose or suggest. Thanks

UAD-1 card?

Greets all,

I'm considering getting a UAD-1 card and I've got a few questions:

* About how many plugins can it run at one time? I know each requires different amounts of resources but for example, how many Cambridge EQ's can be run at the same time?

It seems like their plugs, as popular and good sounding as they are, do eat up the DSP quickly.

Great River MP-2NV or Universal audio 2-610

ok Guys, the budget is now available and I need to decide which preamps am I going to buy. Thanks to Kurt and some other useful members Ive practically narrowed it down to two pre amps, the Great River MP-2NV and the Universal Audio 2-610 tube preamps. My main clients are Rock, alternative, metal and hard core bands, lots of distortion, heavy drums, screaming vocals, the works!

The budget is here, the desicion is now, Great River or UA ?
