Equalizer in a Hi Fi system

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. 

I had it in my chain for a month. Loved it. It performs wonderfully as an outboard tone box. It has incredibly clean and powerful treble boosting ability (which was comparable to my beloved CO EQ. Bass more than adequate for most applications. And it could execute very seamless effective gentle cuts when called for. Excellent noise floor. Transparent on flat. I think you’d love it. If I didn’t like my Charter Oak PEQ-1 a smidge better I’d still own it. 

I had MOSFET version, BTW
