Is this a new record from acquisition to listed for sale john? My record is 5 min so I can't give you to much crap! ( I wrote a eBay listing in the parking lot)! 😎

Virtually identical. Not sure I need the EQ.

Just put one in the rack today. Didn't think to take the cover off and have a peek. Beauty.

Yep. I've only played with vocals, but the VP28 Litz was really, really close. The 73 was a little more present on top...but the 28 had tons more headroom. I thought it would be opposite to be honest.

I thought it would be opposite to be honest. Have you recorded with the eq engaged but left flat on the heritage 1073/500, if notnplease try to split your mic output to both 73jr and 1073/500 same gain stage just have the eq engaged, I think you will be surprised. I was taught to always engage the eq on Neve 1073 style pre amps... could be old wives take though as I don't use the actual 1073 or clone daily.. Have fun 😀

Yes. Just one test though. Didn't think it made any difference.

This is interesting. Here's a mix of the 1073jr with the VP28L. One phrase is one pre, then the next phrase is the other. For the 5th and 6th phrases (the loud transient ones) I put both of the pres. Yes these are different takes.

That mic is killer too FYI.

Man, what a great-looking bit of work in there.
I've never though of Heritage as a company I'd go to/with. I'll have to reconsider on the basis of craftsmanship alone!

Based on these 2 pictures Seems the Heritage is every bit up to par if not nicer... True film foil caps on the boards not metalized like some.

I feel this is a great balance and shows how important the mic is. I think the second phrase i like is the heritage, even if it's the vp28 L it sounds great 😁👍
