Description
BAE Audio 1023 is a handwired Class A microphone preamp/EQ in the BAE 1073-style rackmount/module family, offered as a 19-inch rackmount unit with external 24 V PSU. BAE's accessible product page identifies rackmount, module, black rackmount and black module versions and highlights the 1023's extended EQ range, including added 20 kHz and 24 kHz high-frequency options. Corroborating retailer data describes the rackmount version as using Carnhill/St. Ives transformers and the same mic/line preamp platform as the 1073, with selectable mic impedance and extended mid/high EQ frequencies. Retailer specifications list the rackmount dimensions as 19 x 1.75 x 9 in and rackmount weight as 10 lb. Manufacturer data is thin, so detailed dimensions and weight are treated as retailer-corroborated rather than manufacturer-confirmed.
