It is a low to medium gain pedal built with an obsession to get all the detail of tone at that gain stage right.
It makes a a Tube Screamer look like a Metal pedal. lol
For those who need comparison think old Fender Tweeds and brown face amps.
Diamond always do things 'their way' when they get it
right they nail it. Doing things different is a given with them.
it looks simple but there are many different gain stage you go thru just on the one simple knob labeled gain. By breaking down a real tube amp in multiple stages you get complex interactions that tubes make.
In a real tube amp not a single control works independently
so boosting for example the mids may also turn down the lows or reshape the highs.
The 902 addresses this masterfully.
CONCLUSION
Yes by your average OD standards this seems ridiculously subtle. But others that make low gain pedals usually end up with a sound that is extremely artificial. Artificial on a Fuzz can be great but on something a delicate as the area between clean and dirty it needs to be right.
I find nothing come close to this for that just before breakup sound!!!
