Yeah, I still wanna hear that MQ112. Good stuff!

I would think high quality EQ would be very useful in this use case. Might sound more natural than compensating with a hearing aid. I admit to knowing more about EQ than hearing aids though!  I believe some hearing aids utilize digital EQ, if I’m ...

Understood. Thanks. Room correct to flat. Then impose target curves to tonal preference. The second part for me is the hearing is believing part. If I’m gonna tonally adjust in the digital domain, I’ve gotta hear that it is as 3D and saturated sou...

“tlcocks  No offense to you or anyone but I gave Schitt a try by buying 3 components for a guest room and all 3 had issues of some sort and had to return them all.  Horrible customer service and subpar product in my opinion, and yes I am talking a...

“Thanks to both of you for the info on the EQ.  I am definitely going to do more serious research into the API equalizers.  It may sound picky, and you can call it girl stuff, but I want them in black and no rack mount ears, or removable ears.  On...

@mirolab , can you or anyone else enlighten me on how sound engineers can run several pieces of gear in series in their chain, sometimes like 8, and not have to worry about degradation of signal. This is as opposed to we audiophiles worrying about...

Actually never mind, @mirolab. The dealer at Guitar Center called and gave me my requested test results. I asked for a number of things to be done. There is disproportionate hiss in right channel. It’s audible with quieter passages of music. That’...

I have called about the used Charter Oak PEQ-1. It’s the right serial number. Deming era. I own 2 already. I am likely going to scoop it up, as it’s the best sounding studio stereo program EQ I’ve ever heard. That is, unless @mirolab wants it. Mir...

A used Charter Oak PEQ-1 has popped up online. Sold by Guitar Center in Pt SAint Lucie FL. I will call tomorrow and find out what serial number and if it’s one of the good ones Mike Deming made.

It’s Select SR 24. That equalizer will run circles round the Lokius!

The Michelangelo thread a Gearspace is amazing. Lot of great discussion also on digital vs analog. Another great quote: ”Agree with that 100%. Indeed nowadays some plugins "emulations" (aiming for analog color) are sounding quite great (and some ...
