Behringer DEQ mods?

I'd just use an outboard dac and use the Behringer only in the digital domain. That's exactly what I do. I can't imagine what mods would do to make the digital domain any better and an outboard dac leaves alot of choices. Therefore use the money for a better dac. That's my opinion anyway.

I actually use an older Bel Canto DAC 1.1. This thing is good enough for me and is excellent. Thought about getting a newer dac but this thing for 450 bucks is keeping me happy. Getting the latest and greatest of 4-5 years ago in dacs is a good option as you can get them at a fraction of the price of new dacs and performance is still excellent.

That was my thought too. I just wanted to see if anyone had heard a modded one.

I talked to Paul at TRL a while ago about modding the Behringer. He said they tried one, but couldn't make it sound any better.

Yeah you will be hard pressed to get better sound out of an inline equalizer changing caps or power supplies etc.. I use a more costly unit than the behringer by DBX, it is smooth as glass and does not add anything when on or off in the sound, so its very transparent already, also it is a pro unit used with pro measurments for live venues, however I don't use it for anything in the midrange and hi's only bass correction so who knows maybe it could be improved in the more criticle frequencies.. Again I don't think the money of mods to such a unit would be justified, or render much better results that you can't electronically adjust within such a tool on its own anyway, maybe, but I feel it would be minimal improvement at best and money better spent elsewhere.
