Could anything possibly compare?
The Teletronix LA-2A Grey, might be the most important plugin in any of my mixes. I use it on Bass, Lead Vocals and Acoustic Guitars. It is also an important part of my Sub Master Bus (transformer only). For lead vocals it is amazing. Applied at the end of your Lead Vocal compression chain, the LA2A Grey could well spell the end of riding vocals. Its ability to transparently reduce the dynamic range of material without it being noticeable is amazing. A breathtaking plugin at worst. It is without question one of my most prized UAD plugins and an essential tool in any serious engineers arsenal.

An essential.
My first taste of aftermarket compression was the W****s CLA-2A and 76, and I used those bad boys on everything. When I invested in UAD my perceptions changed radically. These weren't just compressors, they were a way of life. My UAD 76 units went on everything in my mixes, and unfortunately my UAD LA2A's felt a little neglected. Until recently when I started making them my go to buss compressors. The grey on drum bus with it's medium speed, or LA-2 on the slower numbers make the whole drum sound for me. The silver's fast timing it great on bass/electric guitars. You can buy now, go an' try - you can pay me next week.

Low/mid cohesion
Well, I gave some 670 to the master busses of all ten tracks of a post-death/metal project with just a touch of compression (1-1.5 dB) and received a very valuable low/low-mid cohesion in return. It's a very pleasing sounding, useful compressor, I think, also for drum busses.

It´s on!
Very good plugin! I use it on drums, guitars, vocal, bass... I really love to smack my snare with this as parallel compressor! Each time I use it, I like it more. I found myself turning it on and loving the tonal character, even when it isn´t compressing!
The three versions really make sense. You´ll get used to them, the longer you have the plugs in use, but won´t make any mistake in the meantime, as they all sound awesome.
I´m having them almost constantly on my vocals!

a must to have !!!
I can not compare it with the original, but I can hear how it sounds in my setup, warm and precise.It does what it needs to do a compressor. has its own character and its sound to be, like down the line LA2, LA3 and 1176. least in my opinion!

I love it and it is an essential compressor for my work
The Fairchild Collection sounds really good, I love it and it is an essential compressor for my work.

The Magic Box!
There's something just so special about this LA-2A collection. Two knobs...tone for DAYS! Usually I just set it when tracking through my Apollo to take off 1-2db of GR, just kissing the needle to catch those peaks. Oh man - absolute butter! Can't live without these plugs!

F%&king incredible!!
A twist here, a twist there, no harshness and everything starts sounding expensive in a human way. I was looking for a Pultec Style Hardware on ebay, now I'm looking for more dsp power. ;) Like it better than the Massive Passive. Thank you UA!! x ;)

So useful for tracking
This is probably the only plugin I really need when tracking vocals. Reverb is nice but not always necessary, but a little LA2A compression with barely any latency is ALWAYS a good thing.
B. Albrecht
Just perfect!
Just perfect as the "original" hardware unit - i am using both every day and it's just amazing - Thank you for this amazing-sounding emulation!

Amazing collection
I tested a lot of compressor plugins but this collection is absolutely amazing! You can use these compressors for every kind of stuff and it sounds always awesome. I use them for a few months now and in every project. Great job UAD!

Easy use + great results = LA2A collection
Well, I bought it and love it. I think everything has already been said in other reviews, but I'd just like to second that: Easy to use and easy to get great sounding results - I really like the serial 1176+LA comp 'trick' on vocals and the LA's on bass, overheads and synth/strings.

Ideal for parallel compression
I really like to use 1176 to overcompress a send, I get extra loudness!

Different characters for many purposes
My favourite compressor family with different characters and it is really for almost everything in your mix.

Audio Mixer/Engineer
Firstly, I own the Universal Audio 2-1176 hardware unit, and I was left speechless… I was without speech.
This plugin is so versatile, it works brilliantly as both a compressor/EQ all at once.
A very well worth purchase in my opinion.
V. Shageev
Amazing tool!
It's really cool! Very good for each type of instrument. It give me control and presence that I need in my tracks! The most powerfull compressor for lead or back vocal)
Thanks for it! :)

Loving the warmth!
I just love how this warms up whatever you put through it - really added some oomph to a sax solo I was mixing.

Weird but cool piece of kit
I struggle to understand this plugin, but I find that if I turn knobs long enough something beautiful always comes out of it. Thanks UA!

Feels Like the Real Thing
This is a great set of compressors that I find invaluable for both tracking and mixing. It's great having all three and there is certainly a distinct difference between each of the compressors. Having used the hardware pieces that these model many times I feel the only thing I'm missing is the sound of the needle hitting the inside of the meter. Like most everything UA make this is a must have!
