BAE specializes in making meticulous recreations of classic gear. When it comes to mic preamps, BAE focuses on the Big Three from Neve – the 1073, 1081, and 1084 – and the classic from API, the 312A. Several variations on these designs are available, with extra bells and whistles not found on the originals. All the gear made by BAE is wired by hand to ensure the highest quality and attention to detail. Utilizing Class A, all-discrete designs with classic and modern transformers from Carnhill (St. Ives) and Jensen, the gear from BAE is built to a specification, not a price point.
