Mcintosh MQ112


Hi all - 

I have a pair of B&W 802d's (first version). Now I know everyone thinks that they are crap and as bright as the sun.

Before tossing them aside, what do you feel about adding a Mcintosh MQ112 equalizer after my preamplifier?

thanks in advance....

FWIW, my 802 D Diamonds are neutral, not bright at all.  You need to work on setup.  As a quick place to start, play with speak toe in.  Start with no toe in at all.  You might find Paul McGowan's book on speaker set up helpful from his series The Audiophile's Guide.  Another option would be to seek the help of someone to help you optimize your system in your home.  I can assure you that your speakers are excellent when properly set up.
