A couple issues you might want to think about:
* with everything continuously variable and the pots slightly more "touchy" in setting specific values than some other designs will make it very difficult to do accurate recalls or match sides with it
* at $2500 for 2 bands there are other competing products which potentially offer more versatility for the same cost

If you really like its sound and can live with these down sides though I'd say go for it - it might make a very good secondary eq to have - but it would not be the best choice as a primary mastering eq imho. So to me if you purchase it - it depends on what eq's you already have - I myself chose to put similar cash into an API 5500 and a used Sontec MEP250EX as secondary eq's to my Medici instead of purchasing a MiniMassive.

Best regards,
