Matched pair of original Neve 1089 modules, rack-mounted with external power supply. Classic early-’70s Class-A design with Marinair/St Ives transformers — same circuit as the 1073. Fully functional, plug-and-play ready, and dripping with that unmistakable Neve warmth and punch. Rarely seen.

A rare opportunity to own a pair of vintage Neve 1089 mic pre/EQ modules, fully rack-mounted and powered by an external PSU — ready to plug in and record. These are authentic Neve modules from the classic early-1970s era, featuring the same Class-A topology and Marinair/St Ives transformers that made the 1073 legendary.

The 1089 shares its core circuit with the 1073 but uses fixed EQ frequencies, giving it a slightly different — yet equally musical — tonal signature. Expect that unmistakable Neve character: warm lows, creamy mids, and silky top end with massive headroom and rich harmonic color.

Features:

  • Matched pair of genuine Neve 1089 modules
  • Professionally rack-mounted with included external power supply
  • Original Marinair/St Ives transformers and BA283 amplifier cards
  • Classic 3-band fixed-frequency EQ and high/low shelving filters
  • Transformer-balanced mic/line I/O
  • Fully functional and tested — plug-and-play ready
  • Perfect for tracking, mix-bus color, or mastering warmth
  • These are true vintage Neves, not reissues or clones. Whether you’re a studio owner, producer, or collector, this pair delivers the real analog magic — the sound that defined a generation of classic records.

Serious buyers only.
