hello stuadh,

i don't have an rs70, but i also don't have any problems
with my a119's. i almost never compress signals in front of
the a119 and nevertheless use them frequently.
those modules with preamps are relatively cheap,
so nobody can really expect that they sound like a high quality
channelstrip, no matter if they are from analogue systems,
doepfer or any other manufacturer. maybe someone elso can
say more about the rs70 ?

best wishes

ingo
