Critic Reviews

Aphex 651

ovnilab.com

The Aphex 651 stands out as an impressively transparent compressor, preserving the nuances of tone and texture where others fall short. While it lacks the tube gain stage of its successor, the 661, this older model offers a more natural, smooth compression. Its cool running temperature makes it ideal for gig racks, but potential buyers should be wary of possible issues due to age, such as needing recapping or servicing. Despite this, its affordability and performance make it a compelling choice for those seeking clarity and effective limiting.
