I didn't add my $.02 before, but this seems like a kit version of the
Presonus
M80 for about the same price as the off-the-shelf one. I built from
scratch a 4
channel mic pre based on the Jensen JT-115K/NE5534 about 20 years ago and
it
cost about the same per channel as this does. While it was a great
learning
experience and it still sounds good, it isn't a cost-effective solution
now
unless you consider it to be an educational experience, which it likely
will be.

Same features as the Presonus, prob. a lot higher quality (they don't use
Jensens any more, as far as I know), and the option of building anywhere
from 1 to 8 channels.

And the reason the cost is about the same as what you built is that this
design is probably a good deal similar to yours. Not much new under the sun,
really.

Peace,
Paul
