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....

Who gives a crap what others think about how they sound?
 If you like them,that’s all that matters...
I'm not a big fan of Eq's,IMO all you are doing is masking the root of the issue..
 Measurements from reviews show they can sound forward & bright with the wrong amplification..I would say if they are sounding bright to you,warm them up with a tube preamp & look at your cables..
 Room acoustics can also make some speakers sound bright,perhaps some treatments might help...Good luck..
