Cool! The 4K preamp I made with a Carnhill input was awesome - probably one of my biggest gear regrets was selling it a few years ago.

But you could add a Colour module for some more mojo pretty easily! They definitely won’t unless modded but I’m sure they will sound great regardless. I think I saw that they were using Jensen. I would definitely go for the transformer input option. Almost makes me want to get back into 500 series.

any thoughts on how these would compare sound wise to the diyre cp5s?

any thoughts on how these would compare sound wise to the diyre cp5s? Probably a bit different. Very different design going on and different chips. But both are still IC based preamps. I haven't used the CP5 but I'd wager that it is probably "cleaner" than the SSL preamp and more neutral.

I haven't used the CP5 but I'd wager that it is probably "cleaner" than the SSL preamp and more neutral. it is extremely clean and I was worried the ssl 9000 would also be that clean so it would be redundant. Now I'm definitely interested. thanks

Has anyone used the Link Audio SL4K-E01 (w/ Jensen mic trx) or their SL4K-G91? I'm quite interested in both of them.
Thanks

Has anyone heard any of these next to SSL’s 500 series preamps or EQs? I’d be really curious to hear about how they compare.

I picked up the 4kE - I’ll get to put it on drums sometime this month. Ostensibly, it’s got some amazing features for the price. If I like it, I’ll drop in a distortion color option and most likely buy another pre or two and an eq
