The Manley brand has been around since the late 1980's. Manley's first commercially available products were upper echelon high-fidelity vacuum tube amplifiers and preamplifiers constructed at the old Vacuum Tube Logic of America factory. In this history lessom, we'd like to direct special focus on our people at Manley Labs. The poeople whose yers of dedication, service, and expertise bring you people, our customers, these products. It's all about the people.

On January  30,1989, a 20 year old EveAnna on sabbatical from her studies at Columbia Unversity met the crew and was hired on the production team. Baltazer Hernandez, already with two years experience, taught her how to solder in those first few days. It was in 1989 that the first Manley professional products were developed, starting with the original 1u Reference 60 dB Microphone Preamplifier and soon followed by our Manley Enhanced Pultec and Mid Frequency Equalizers.

Baltazer and EveAnna, busy building gear, were soon joined by Marcelino Tornez, Saulo Montaivo, and Ramiro Montalvo. Just next door, Elias Guzman was employed by a printed circuit board maker later brought into the Manley Labs fold when in 1993, Manley Laboratories, Inc. became a seperate entity apart from VTL. The new Manley Labs factory at 13880 Magnolia Ave. in beautiful and bovine Chino, California was outfitted to house thet Manley HiFi and Pro Studio manufacturing as well as the Langevin production lines, our newly acquired machine shop, and printed circuit board facilities.
