If you google in the rec.pro.audio newsgroup you will find several opinions of the RNC (compressor) and RNP (preamp). > FMR isn't the only option for affordable high end > preamps. Check out the do it yourself (DIY) preamp > kits at http://www.hamptone.com/ > Interesting, but these are different beast, I think the hamptone pre must be much more colored (transformer, two stage jfet amplifier) and less versatile, but it can have an interesting sound in some situation. You can find a lot of DIY audio stuff, but you need time and skills ... I have skills (I am an electronic engineer) but not so much time !! Christophe
