| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system My SS Hendyamps Michelangelo is finally shipping to me. Am excited for the new toy! Will report here after a while once I’ve had some time with it. | |
| Sweetest sounding 12AU7? Re issue GL is brighter with clearer mids. BB sounded muddy in comparison. I liked reissue GLs better. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Used to play around with that one and Aphex. Those work differently as you stated than EQ. High end EQ is more natural and true to life and indeed more resolute. I won’t deny I enjoyed their punchy sound for a while. Did you know FM radio used to ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “An important step communicating is knowing, or trying at least to get bearing on what’s discussed in the first place, and its context. Your use of an analog mastering broadband EQ device is likely as an active component and thus a buffer or imped... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “There’s much more to a DSP than that, not least also acting as a crossover at the same time (we’re talking months of optimizations in my case tailoring the speaker sound from ground up).” I am understanding and well aware of this. That’s precise... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I am well aware that Loki Max is ANALOG. if you’d take the time to read the whole thread, you wouldn’t find me at all confused. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Thanks. Since I always adjust short of audible distortion I believe I’m fine as you say. That’s what 2 sound techs have said as well. Regarding phase shift, @mirolab much earlier in this thread addressed how minimum this plays into things. He’s go... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Oh, and Charter Oak PEQ-1 reviews from 2010 call it a “magic box”. Literally. Sounds a bit more serious when a studio engineer says this, huh? And don’t call that arrogant. Am simply responding to you own condescension. I know am asking for you ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “mere inclusion of an analog studio mixer ” One more thing. It’s not a mixing EQ. It’s a broad Q MASTERING EQ | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Sorry so excessive here. Again just my passion coming out. Let’s just leave it at I need to hear what you’re doing and you need to hear what I’m doing. Fair enough? | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system My guy locally says even the best DSP for room correction leaves a slight haze and grain to the mids. I want to hear on my own though. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system And I do read about shootouts on Gearspace with mastering engineers comparing the best plug-in digital emulations of classic analog designs, eg Knif Soma or SPL PQ, and they say similar to my observations on my own system but with a smaller margin... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system You confuse passionate as arrogance. I have yet to meet a DSP advocate as passionate here as I’ve been. That should tell you something. But I’ll admit I’ve only done some bass and treble shelf boosts and compared them instantaneous A-B to my analo... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Yeah but notice I’m not slamming or poo pooing DSP. I am simply speaking to how beautiful the right analog implementation sounds. Your talk about my experience condescending though. Again, I was impressed by BACCH and am open to hearing the manner... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “Question: electrically speaking, can I run balanced equalizer into a tube amp and boost the signal without damaging tubes or amp? Cannot find a definitive review of this topic anywhere online. “ I talked to two sound engineers and got my answ... |
