Having been blown away with the UAD I looked into their preamps, they seem to be modelled on some great vintage design approaches. More concisely, what are the pro'sand cons of the 2-620 vs. the 2108? I'm mainly recording sax and want something to plug my U87 into, be nice to push some other sources through as well. I'm a big fan of the Rudy sound and some of the work that comes out of Avatar (Breacker and so forth). Does anyone who uses them regularly fancy penning a few thoughts on the matter. All the best, Holli.
