Warm Audio WA-73 Single Channel British Microphone Preamp Overview: A Single Channel '73 For The Rest Of Us If there’s one style of preamp that professional engineers would unanimously agree has defined the tone of pop/rock records for decades, it would most definitely be the venerable '73-style of mic pre.

'73-style preamps have been massively used in recording and live applications for many years and are still considered to be the “Holy Grail” of preamp choices today. The Warm Audio “WA73 Family” consists of single and dual channel '73-style preamps (with & w/out EQ), that each pay careful homage to British audio history.

The tone and sweet character that vintage '73-style mic preamps impart is so unique and familiar, that after years of R&D, careful reverse-engineering, and countless hours of auditioning, the WA73 has been born! The WA73 is a “Desert Island” boutique preamp, but it can also be classified as a studio and live work-horse.

Classic '73-style preamps are known for being versatile tools that work with all kinds of microphones from Condenser, to Dynamic, to Ribbon.
