COMP-2A capacitors and transistorsThe COMP 2A is a one channel vintage style Compressor Leveler using vacuum tubes in the signal and side chain path. The input and output is transformer balanced, using two different transformers, each one optimized for its purpose. This is the way audio components were built before transistors and integrated circuits became available. Integrated circuits are small and cheap and widely used in most modern designs. The drawback is that audio components
