A complete new twist: two different microphone preamps. One box - two colors. One channel the exact same micpre as in the highly respected SLAM! with tubes and transformers. The other a fresh "No Tubes" design from Manley's chief engineer Hutch, inspired by old British console preamps. This is not a clone. It is a new flavor reminiscent of that classic discrete sound. Both channels are designed around a ideal of  “Just plug in your mic and it sounds great” The tube channel excels on traditionally difficult sources like bright guitars, reed and brass, cymbals and vocals. The "No Tubes" channel is perhaps better suited for smooth vocals, drums, bass or raunchy guitars. That said, you never really know which preamp is best for the job at hand until you try them. 

The Manley TNT - two qualified candidates in one handy 1U chassis.

Toggle switched Input and Output controls allow you to create overdriven effects one day and clean ones the next. Steps are labeled "Clean" "60's" and "70's". "Clean" is very clean, very low noise, very accurate and very musical. Both the "60's" and "70's" positions introduce discrete class-A circuits for vintage colour, controlled overload characteristics and creative opportunities. This gives a range from incredibly clean through to subtle warmth or really heavy grunge. A 1U box provides a complete pallete of tones with each aspect designed to Manley Labs' exacting standards.
