Equalizer in a Hi Fi system

I love folks like yourself, Denis, who are not afraid to seek out good quality treble tone control and Boost…for better space, timbre and harmonic structure in upper range. Often mids sound more realistic doing so, as I think you have also found.  Too many audiophiles absolutely do not know what they are missing because they are treble shy and only cut there. And likely that’s because of poor implementation on that tone control or EQ, making a boost sound bad. As I have said before, finding a true balanced transparent treble tone control that enhances the music boosted without degrading is truly a magic experience with hi fi gear. The true Keys to the Kingdom!

To the treble cutters, the truth is that if you added a modest nice broad bass shelf of  say 4 db or so and possibly a mild touch of mids boost, then you’d never cut treble. You’d want to boost with a high quality treble shelf or bell. When we hear  music and want to cut treble (lean, presence region forward with straight signal), it’s almost always better to do the boosts mentioned above than cut. But only if the EQ is up to snuff. You really need analog EQ to do this right. And almost every audiophile uses digital. Which doesn’t boost well, particularly in 2 or 3 places in the FR. Gotta be analog!

TONE IS KING!! 
But I must have resolution, pace, stage, dynamics and timbre also!  I simply am not satisfied unless I have it all!  And I’d rather do it my way than spend 200K on a system with no tone controls!

For any system under some price,it is impossible to go without  equalization and tone controls... Analog is better S.Q. /price ratio...

I had no experience with very high end...

Anyone using the Hendy Amps Michelangelo EQ? 

I see they offer it in Tube or Mosfet version.

Looks interesting, but cannot find any information, on using it in a home 2 channel setup.
