What We Think

The Vintech 609 is a stereo compressor and limiter based on the original Neve 33609, with output amplifiers based on the Neve 2254..  The 33609 is known for it’s extreme flexibility and its ability to transparently handle heavy compression, and the 2254 is renowned for it’s big fat color.  With the Vintech 609CA you can affordably get the best of both worlds, depending on how you drive the unit.  Be sure to watch our video series to see this truly in action. 


Vintech has once again amazed us with an awesome Neve inspired unit.  This compressor is honestly one of our favorites in this entire building, and it seems to have a place on pretty much every session, whether it be drums, buss compression, guitars, vocals, or even entire mixes.  Having independent control over a separate compressor and limiter in one package, for two channels is a pretty incredible thing.  Because you get both a compressor AND a limiter for each channel, it’s basically like four-channels of compression/limiting in a single box.   The color can be manipulated from transparent, to very, very rich, and everything in between. 

Manufacturer's Description from Vintech

The Vintech Audio 609CA is a transformer balanced stereo compressor/limiter with with class A, all discrete output amplifiers. The compression and limiting circuitry is based on the classic Neve 33609, while the output amplifiers are more similar to the Neve 2254.

The Vintech Power Supply can power up to four individual channel strips, a 473 (four channel unit) and two single channel strips, a 473 and a 609 Stereo compressor, or a variety of other options. Contact us for more information about the Vintech Power Supply Unit.
