| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I have been demoing the Wes Audio NGTubeEQ the last 3 days. It is Uber expensive but what you get is a super clean sounding unit with all the musicality of my Charter Oaks, in other words amazing SQ. It is finicky at first as a full parametric wit... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Pete, I have info from Mike, if you’ll reach back out to me in private | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system For all the unit’s rails of power and with it using passive circuitry and high quality inductors, it should be able to do air band with aplomb. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Pete, I sure hope the person you spoke with re the Wes is wrong! You and I are cut from the same cloth when it comes to HF air band! | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system @petieboy12003 , I will get back with you on that unit. Need to research it further | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Last comment, Pete, on your comments on how the treble sounded on the YouTube videos of Mike Deming demoing the Charter Oak. Mike used broad bells for all the bands. No shelf filters. My experience comparing the CO with the Avalon and Millennia EQ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Regarding the YouTube videos, they are somewhat helpful, but ultimately one needs the gear in one’s home on one’s system. Yes, my 2 CO’s have that amazing treble dial, with its sparkle and beauty. The Michelangelo did that really really well also.... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Pete, THANK YOU for your kindest of words! Yes this whole thing when implemented correctly is a great passion of mine. Using this gear really opens up the too often boxed, sterile sound of the straight signal. I listen to a lot of rock and for th... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I have made a huge decision. As the MA is a lateral move from my CO in the final analysis. Each has different strengths. I couldn’t stop looking, however, at the Wes Audio NGTubeEQ. So I traded in the MA for it. It comes Monday. It has serious rai... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Oh, and I’m posting on Gearspace forums now. Quite fun, talking analog EQ mojo with recording engineers, some famous. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Further thoughts on CO and MA. CO’s mids hold together better with larger bass boosts. No winners here. Calling it a tie. MA sounds better with milder EQ. Both great pieces. | |
| PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread I tried Psvane EL34-Ph. Nice, but not bright enough for my Auris Nirvana. Is there another choice within the Psvane catalog that has more prominent treble extension? | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Genius quote from Chris Henderson at Hendyamps. When I posed the question of digital vs analog EQ in the studio, this was his response. Enjoy: “Honestly, digital and analog are two completely different beasts. When you want precision tools tha... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system @jtcf, I also have had evenings with friends and family like that as well. You know you have gear that is doing something special when this happens. Great feeling! Enjoy. API is renowned in studio circles and makes great gear. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Thanks @jtcf for the response. And @unreceivedogma, you are right. Whatever works for you. I am just hoping to save any other avid EQers some trial and error, as I’ve made it my sub hobby to explore as many high end hardware EQs as I can. To both ... |
