I received a PMD661 this morning. It's a handsome, businesslike box.
Here are a few photos.
The PMD661 is considerably larger than pocket-size. Here it's shown
with a Tascam DR-1 (on the left) and an Olympus LS-10 (right).

However, the PMD661 doesn't look so big if you add a 48V battery box
to the small recorder.

Set up for recording. The Rode NT1A mic works fine with the phantom
power provided by the recorder.

I'll report on preamp performance tomorrow.
