Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
“Well I can confirm what others have said here about the Michelangelo. It's absolutely insane. It just makes music sound like a record like nothing ever heard. Glorious highs, thick mids, deep usable lows. I redid a couple masters that I had done ...

@mirolab , no worries for coloration if one can dial that to a minimum as on this device. After watching the video, I’m impressed with EVERY dial on the piece. Including the “Agression” Or color dial. I have read a lot of Gearspace threads on piec...

Just watched/listened to the HM in action through my headphones on YouTube. I am SEDUCED!  What a fascinating and amazing sounding unit!  It’s hard to make it sound ‘wrong’. Much like my Charter Oak. But with the tube saturation effect making it a...

Am IMMERSED in the thread devoted to Hendyamps Michelangelo on Gearspace.  My curiosity is piqued. This thread may make me buy one!  
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
Hard to say. It’s got Aggression dial that ramps up tube effects eg saturation and harmonics. Maybe I’d sound superb finding the sweet spot on that dial. Really hard to say.

the ultimate list of One set of controls, Stereo EQ Gearspace thread  This is where I’ll go first if I ever need to hunt for an EQ that’s true stereo. Great comprehensive list. Was wrong about SPL PQ. It’s not true stereo linked

Right now listening to Daft Punk - Random Access Memories as follows: Matrix X Sabre 3 dac streamer > Charter Oak analog balanced hardware PEQ-1 > Headamp GSX-Mini > HEKse.  Tonally adjusted to personal taste. For this album, for my ears...

@ellajeanelle , I read a lot of mastering forum threads because basically I tone shape and great insights for the “next step” beyond mastering, post production tone shaping to taste at home, can be gleaned from these threads. Also, you read about ...
