Take a dull recording, if you will, and BOOST the 10 k band and describe the quality of the treble. If you don’t mind.

@tom899 ,  how’s the 10 k band in a boost situation?  Sound good and smooth and sparkly or is it a little too low in FR and sounds brash, harsh, or fatiguing?

LM great for small band adjustments. Falls apart sonically with bigger moves. There pro pieces that sound better. Have heard many in my home that best LM. I own one that I love. Not made anymore but a total gem. Have not heard the MQ112 but want t...

@mijostyn , can you give me a brief update on your progress with DEQX?  I am still very interested in hearing the final smoothed out product at its best. I would love to hop a flight/ plan a little trip around paying you a visit to meet you and h...

I am not an ‘only booster’ anymore. Better power delivery to PEQ-1 with better power cables has me experimenting. I have found there are several ways to EQ to taste, some of which involve gentle cuts. And they all sound great. Love the aftermarket...

I love folks like yourself, Denis, who are not afraid to seek out good quality treble tone control and Boost…for better space, timbre and harmonic structure in upper range. Often mids sound more realistic doing so, as I think you have also found. ...

@mahgister , I wish I could hear your naturally tuned system with the resonators you use coupled with your Sansui EQ!  I will simply bet for the relatively small monetary outlay that it sounds heavenly!

Incidentally that Charter Oak on EBay sold like 2 days after I posted about it. They are tonally wonderful EQs and the pros know it. They are rare gear and highly sought after.
