Golden Age Project COMP-54 MKIII Single Channel Vintage-Style CompressorThe COMP 54 is a one channel vintage style compressor. The signal path uses only discrete components like resistors, capacitors and transistors. The line input and output are transformer balanced and the unit also has a third interstage transformer. This is the way audio components were built before integrated circuits became available. ICs are small and cheap and they are widely used in most modern designs. It is clear though that audio components
