Show us your Pre-Amp

top 2 rows are 10 band graphic and a 10 band parametric 

yeah it does sound very good if i do say so myself i just got a new one off him but its stereo with phase switchs and 24db and 48db roll of switchs and inserts on all the outputs

Its like a kitchen, you already know where everything is.  If you want a knife you go to the cutlery draw without thinking... you do not look for the label marked cutlery, then the label for knife [although this may help guests to your kitchen]

BSI cant sort out important standards for things like steel grades, i doubt they would make one for pre-amps!

The preamp back in the day was a tool in the art of the clash all started with blue spot grams[blaunkpaunt] that had been modified to do something different than another mans blue spot from changing values of valves adding smoothing valves changing the tuner input to be a mic input and music mix this is where the so called black art of preamps came from so it was not likely that you wanted another man to know what you did to your blue spot so you covered the panels or made generic boxes for them [if the  wife let you destroy the front room focal piece ] the next thing was to scratch all the title of records that you would play with and rename them what you wanted so another man couldn,t go to the shop and buy that tune after you killed him in a clash early clashes the rave went from house to house but you never bought you sound just records there was a lot of sculdugary in those days to get the biggest following .
my point being no sound man worth his weight would tell you anything about his sound
even in the event of your sound system being stolen they would get no helping hand in how to use it if stolen by marking inputs output and layouts most stolen preamps turn up years later to the maker or modifier
tubbys does not mark the box he uses that sits above his pre/or tell you frequency of said items nor does john meyer but you likes it you buy it simple as
you still cant ask most proper soundmen about his sound systems this is probably why regaee sound systems dont make good advertising material because the basically dont want you to know what they use

Ok TRE, interesting story bout those blue spots..
