Urei 1178 Stereo Limiter

The 1178 needs no introduction, although it is a very rare specimen!
Consider this: 1178 was most probably used on most of your favourite records. It wery closely resemble the 1176 revision H.

It is a true classic of professional audio gear, it was inducted into the Technology Hall of Fame in 2008. It uses Field Effect Transistor, or FET, as a voltage divider to accomplish the task of compression, in conjunction with I/O transformers and a Class A line level amplifier.

The unit has a interchangeable fuse and can work on both 110 and 220V. European power cable included.

This gem of a compressor was carefully cleaned, tested and recalibrated by Retrosonic Pro Audio service engineers and is in good condition!
