DAV Electronics - Reviews - Music Tech Magazine

It may sound like a posh Westminster address, but Broadhurst Gardens No.1 is a mic preamp developing a keen following among audio pros. Huw Price explains...

Price: £489.00
Manufacturer: DAV Electronics
Website: http://www.kmraudio.com

This isn’t a new product, in fact, its origins date back to the mid 1990s. DAV Electronics was established by ex-Decca engineer Mick Hinton. At one time, it was common for recording studios to modify and even build their own equipment to improve performance. This is one of the reasons that many of the older record labels and studios each had their own unique sound.
