Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
@jacobsdad2000 , we’ve covered this already. To EQ or not. Moved beyond that now.

I believe it is advertised as ‘environmental’ or room corrective, yes?

My only curiosity about MQ112 is room correction with an assumed non narrow notch non Q or center point selectable analog and not digital filters. Not sure how this works for the needs of room correction. But I guess the ear tells all. Just gotta ...

@mahgister , I found your last post very interesting and informative as well. More than one way to skin a cat!

Exciting!  Can’t wait to hear!

@mirolab , have you ever heard the Maag EQ4M?  It is renowned and revered in mastering circles for its air treble shelf section. It’s always available with a 30 day return on Amazon, and I’m always tempted to try it. I never do though because 1) I...

I’m excited for you. I wouldn’t think you can go wrong with the McIntosh. Great products. Please listen first though. As stated previously it’s lacking in upper octave controls. If that’s not important to you then it’s likely an amazing product.

@mijostyn , thanks for your last very informative and interesting post.  I often use a bit less treble at low volume. Interesting the volume effect on tonality

@tattooedtrackman , can’t wait to hear about your impressions of MQ112!

Yes. I’ve often wondered what that Weiss digital hardware piece sounds like.

It’s really not like that for me. It’s fancy bass and treble dials. I never touch 3 of the six dials. Center point switches for bells are always left the same. If I’m sitting on the couch and wanna get more bass or treble (or less), it’s nothing t...

Its specs are impressive though. SNR 115, for example

MQ112 tops out at a center point of 10K. Not high enough. The magic occurs when you pick up subtleties of the 12-16K area and the favorable harmonic textures of the higher order Supra aural frequencies as well. Watch the video online about Mike ta...

@wolf_garcia , your experience with LM jives with mine. Our observations are not discrepant. I just love the ability to dial in more treble that’s top shelf treble at will. Gonna say though…bass lifts are better also with my CO. Not just treble. A...
