Re: 1/4 IN PREAMP TRADE



Hzirbes- MANY of our customers report that they prefer the 147 with the XB-2
due to it being inherently brighter.  They use the bass/treble controls of
the XB-2 to better simulate a B-3 sound.  Some use in-line equalization to
"tweak" the XB-2 tone and chorus to VERY closely simulate a B-3.

I personally have no preference, but my bands are very vocal in their
preferences both ways depending upon their style of play.  The 122 is much
quieter than a 147 for recording and stage use, no question about it.
