Manley Labs Massive Passive – Mastering Version (Stereo Tube EQ)

I'm selling my Manley Labs Massive Passive in the Mastering Version in very good condition. The unit was used exclusively in a smoke-free studio and is fully functional.

The Manley Massive Passive is an absolute legend in high-end mastering and widely regarded as one of the finest equalizers ever built. This Mastering Version differs from the standard model by featuring precisely stepped controls on all knobs for perfect recall and absolutely identical channel matching in stereo operation — essential for professional mastering work. The EQ is based on a fully passive filter design combined with a Class-A tube output stage — a concept that gives it its unmistakable open, three-dimensional, and musical sound. Four bands per channel, each with switchable frequencies, bandwidths, and shelf/bell characteristics, plus additional high- and low-pass filters, offer enormous tonal flexibility. From subtle mastering polish to creative tonal shaping — the Massive Passive has set the standard in top mastering studios worldwide for over two decades. Standard 19" rack format (3U), classic purple Manley design, handcrafted in California.
