In their own words

Redeye 3D
Within five minutes of connecting it, I had the Redeye 3D Phantom totally dialed in. While playing guitar with Pro Tools in record-ready input, it was very easy to compare the sound of the live signal against the Pro Tools signal. Right away I learned that 22 dB of gain on the mic preamp was the magic number to make the guitar amp react as if I was playing it with nothing else in the chain. The only difference I could hear was the from the AD/DA conversion, not the Redeye 3D, and the difference was so subtle that it was insignificant. You have successfully taken all the guesswork out of high-fidelity reamping. Hats off!

PCP
The PCP is really amazing, –it does a lot, but what I really dig is it allows me to use my vintage effects on everything. It is my ultimate studio tool.
Joe Barresi · Tool, Bad Religion, The Melvins
PCP
The PCP I use at every stage of recording; it is the best piece of gear I own (except for my ‘72 black Les Paul Custom).
Nick Raskulinecz · Foo Fighters, Rush, Alice In Chains
Monotor
I was just today thinking today about how damn good and transparent this thing sounds. I proof every mastering project on headphones using this headphone amp.
Justin Perkins · Mystery Room Mastering
Monotor
With the Monotor, Little Labs has provided the audio professional the right tool for this job, and the most transparent-sounding headphone amp I've ever heard.
Tom Fine · Tape Op #117
Monotor
After several weeks of putting it through its paces, the Little Labs Monotor headphone amp has proven itself to be an indispensable part of my archiving chain. Whether I'm adjusting azimuth on the tape machine, checking phase, or listening for anomalies within the transfer of priceless master recordings, the level of clarity and amount of functions the Monotor provides makes it easy to get the job done. Great work, Little Labs.
