I have a chance to buy a couple new reissue spectra sonic Stx 100 mk2 mic pre’s very cheap. Haven’t found much on anyone that actually has used them , so anyone with actual experience with them ?How do the new one compare to the original ?
Thanks
Edit : there is of course plenty of info on the originals just asking about the reissue’s

Been using them at a studio I frequent and they are pretty great. The way Bill the designer advised me to use them was to crank the input until the input overload just started flashing red, and then bring the output level up slightly. The output is an additional clean 20dB but the character is from the input. Usually I find I have the input pretty hot and output just barely up. Shaves off the peaks in a pleasant way without sounding distorted or overdriven. Awesome for drums.

Interested in hearing more opinions about these preamps.
