Golden Age Project Comp 554 500 Series Diode Bridge Compressor Direct Sound / Extreme Isolation with the included CSR-1The Comp 554 is a one channel vintage style compressor for the 500 format. The signal path uses only discrete components like resistors, capacitors and transistors. The input and output are transformer balanced and the unit also uses 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
