B.Y.O.C. Classic Compressor Kit - Vintage Upgrade Pack
The stock Build Your Own Clone (BYOC) Classic Compressor kit can go head to head with the finest Ross clones. But add the Vintage Upgrade Pack and you'll give your compressor the vintage mojo that the the other clones just don't have. Comes with one CA3080A chip, one TO-100 gold plated socket, and five 2SC1849 transistors. The metal can CA3080A was the chip used in the very first script logo Dynacomps. The 2SC1849 transistors were used in the script logo Dynacomps, the original Ross gray compressor, and the early Keeley Compressors. With the Vintage Upgrade Pack, the compressor has all the squish of the CA3080E/2N5088 combo, but with a more natural attack, more overall volume, and better retention of high frequencies. These parts aren't cheap, but they're well worth the extra coin if you're looking for the ultimate Ross clone.
