Heritage Audio vs AMS Neve

Hi all, The other day I compared the AMS Neve 1073N with the Heritage Audio 1073. We were tracking various styles of vocals using a Heyne-modded U87 and a Bock 507. I was surprised by the difference between the two units and would like to discuss the experience with others who've made the same comparison....

Goodness gracious, which Neve?!!!

...with a vintage BCM-10) and I can tell you what MY ears (and sometimes the engineer there) thought. The list: AMS 1073N AMS 1073 hand-wired BAE 1073 BAE DMP Heritage 1073 Shelford 5052 Converted vintage 1272 Vintage Neve 1290 with correct vintage input/output transformers Is this the answer you are looking for? I did all these comparisons over a while but always level...
