I too am amazed at how quiet the preamps are on my 722. I honestly  
don't like the sound quality as much as the Lunatec preamp, but it's  
probably quieter, just somehow not as 'lush' (But it's close). But  
for a built-in preamp on a portable device, it's as good as I've  
certainly ever seen. It's a fantastic recorder.

I still can't decide to hang onto my old DAT gear, or sell it off.  
It's honestly worth so little now, I have a hard time justifying  
selling it.

Another very nice recording.
