I'm trying to build a discrete component class A microphone pre-amp
as an EE senior design project. The pre-amp is intended for use in live
recording by the School of Music's audio dept. (for which I am an asst.
recording engineer), so I'm trying to achieve professional quality.

I've seen designs for amps that use IC op-amps and discrete op-amps, but
none that don't use op-amps. Can anyone suggest references that will be 
helpful or provide schematics? I know that Neve used to make a recording
console with a discrete class A mic pre and I think Cello makes one now.
Niether company has particularly helpful.

Thanks,

Brian
