Analog is FAR from antique and its use is alive and well in recording studios across the globe. IT’s technology has advanced too. Just like digital. I’m sorry @mijostyn , but on this one topic you just, frankly, don’t know what the hell you’re tal...

Now we are going circular argument, dog chasing tail. . I won’t try to convince you further. Please though, we must not conflate room correction digital EQ with tone control!  You have already said you never boost treble with your digital applicat...

“Treble may be easier in a digital EQ implementation environment (from a programming viewpoint? I am only a tweaking audiophile, no engineer. But from my perspective on the hi fi playback end, treble EQ in its final sonic resultant SQ is HARDER to...
