I've really got to try some great river's sometime. Had so many rave reviews on Lynn Fuston's old site at 3daudioinc. I think it is another example of a piece of gear that was incredibly popular and loved, but is not the flavor of the month.

I've really got to try some great river's sometime. I think you will like them. I certainly do. Very big and open sounding. I have never used a Neve but I hear from people who have that these are like that with an extended top end compared to them.

He just doesn't push them like a lot of the whipper snappers

And yeah Great River is sweet. Johnkenn I’ve AB’d with other Neve clones like the Stam MPA and the Heritage two-channel one (before they made more budget gear, the DMA73 or something like that). The Great River is super close in sonics to those, but a tad smoother in the high mids in my (blind) comparisons.

Isn't it a bit obscene that the GR preamps use two 500 slots?

John, do I need to remind you? Thou shall not "covet your neighbors BT50s."

Nice rack! …never gets old ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Oh...Thank you. So kind of you to notice. I'm blushing. I had a rack augmentation performed a couple years ago. My rack went from a size 6 to a size 11. I got the Stam to help push-up my level. Kind of brings new meaning to the term "low cut top" doesn't it?! Does it make my BT look fat? If you are going to perform in audio porn you gotta have a big rack and a world Class A. ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) AC/DC...nobody cares. (I did that for you chessparov)

I'd been wanting to build one of those CAPI 511-VPR racks, but they are never in stock.

I check Capi's Facebook page everyday to see what they have in stock. Even when I'm not in the market for something. If you think you'll have an eventual need you have to get it when it's available. The last time I bought a 511 rack I bought 2 and then decided I wasn't ready for the second one so I sold it. I should have kept it because now I need it.
