For Gear Heads:

BAE 1066DL is based on the classic 1066, which features the same mic-line pre-amplification stage as the 1073, but features different frequency selections in its EQ for a whole new sonic palette. The available frequencies on the 1066 are especially well suited to guitar applications because of its unique midrange.

The BAE 1066DL is completely hand-wired using Carnhill (St. Ives) transformers and has the same mic-line pre-amp as the 1073, with the exception that the 1066DL adds a few different frequencies to your pallet.

This unit is popular among guitarists for having a unique mid-range. The original 1066 only had a 10k shelving but this unit offers additional frequencies: 10k Hz,12k Hz,16k Hz, 20k Hz and 24k Hz.

Layman's Terms:

The BAE 1066DL is a new 500 Series module from BAE Audio.  Based off the classic Neve 1066...the BAE 1066DL is completely hand-wired and has a selection of frequencies that is geared for most guitar applications.  The BAE 1066DL is compatible with most every 500 Series rack on the market.  But it is always best paired with a BAE 6 Space Lunchbox, BAE 6 Space Rack, BAE 11 space rack or even the BAE 3LB.
