Best value: Poor
Passive EQ 4 bands of all-tube 2-way, plus high-pass filter and low pass filter. It is described as a Pultec EQ on steroids, the concept of the passive equalizer being pushed much further. Input and output XLR jack with transformers and transformerless.
Hand Made in the USA. The brand needs no introduction, and the massive passive is its flagship product. To be used in recording a mix, mastering, the EQ is extremely versatile.

UTILIZATION

Very simple, child's play

SOUND QUALITY

A monster, capable of even while sounding great. The more you push, the more he brings the heat. The media in particular have become famous. Able to touch up small finns, big correction, or just use as a tool to bring warmth and harmonics to the sound.

OVERALL OPINION

High price but high-end hardware. The value for money remains good in view of the potential of this equalizer.
