Good Analog EQ

Looking to integrate some form of analog EQ as a temporary solution until I change my speakers (which is going to take a while).

I can appreciate that adding anything into the signal path is not ideal but I'm wondering if it might be a worthy tradeoff since I have a fairly high resolution system but am not hearing it all because of too much bass (and yes, I have some room treatment already).

If I unplug the low frequency speaker cable from one speaker I get a huge improvement in detail (but of course suffer in other ways), so I'm thinking if I get my hands on some decent equalizer I might be able to improve things.

I use digital room correction for digital sources, but obviously don't want to do this for LPs.

Thanks in advance.

the question is:
do you have too much even bass (meaning too much bass on all bass frequencies), and I would say we talk about sub-bass now (below 100Hz to my ears) - or do you have a few resonating standing bass-waves? if certain frequencies boom, then it´s the room/speaker-placement most likely.
if I remember right 60Hz resonate somewhere around 7-8 meters room(wave)-length.

just some thoughts...
