kip4:
Just bought this preamp the alice pak 1 version single mic preamp (£35) ebuy
its got more gain than any preamp i've previously owned and im looking forward to getting a nice ribbon mic at xmas to go with it
http://www.alice.co.uk/micamppak.shtml
gonna do some tests at the weekend i'll let you know how i get on
btw anyone else own one of these

stainless:
I've never heard anything from Alice, but their product line looks intriguing

do let us know how it works out, especially compared to what you've been using

RawDepth:
Yeah, I never heard of it either. Is it sold only locally where you are?

kip4:
do you know i'm not really sure if it is only sold locally. I know it's a british product and according to the web site they specialise in broadcast equipment. I will let you know how i get on stainless. If i get chance later on tonight i will do and A/B test and post an mp3. so you guys can hear for yourselves and comment.
According to the gumph (ad info) it's intended more as a line driver for long cable lengths.

kip4:
Ok guys here you go my A/B test first up is the new alice preamp then the Behringer ultra gain mic2200
you can hear the noise kick in at around 25 seconds when it swaps to the behringer. not sure if its a bad connection the behringer is normally quite but in this test the alice seems more transparant and clean to my ears
let me know what you think guys please.
