  In the 80's for some music I wanted big bass and high highs. EQ gave me that.

  You can achieve a literal night and day difference with an EQ. Period.

  I would not own this vintage gear without some sort of EQ in the chain. It simply takes the music to another level, at least to my ears.

  I'm in my 70's, and when I ran 2 channel stereo, I always used an eq to get the sound to my liking. I never cared for what "audiophiles" said, and say about anything in regards to home stereo/home theater. I don't care for those types of arrogant snotbags who are convinced they are the alpha and beta of home sound systems. To each their own, and their budgets, so rock on with whatever you care to listen too.

  EQ is necessary. I am an audiophile.

  Love using My EQ my brother!!!! Customize your system and adjust to your taste. Plus you can adjust your system to different speakers!

  I use EQs in a few of my systems - I like treble (high) frequencies more and the EQs help accentuate them.<br><br>I don&apos;t care what audiophiles think - they would not debase themselves enough to deign to listen to my cobbled-together, thrift store-sourced rigs.<br><br>Since they were likely NOT part of the recording process (as in, they WEREN&apos;T THERE) - how the hell would they know what it&apos;s &quot;supposed&quot; to sound like?<br><br>I&apos;ll get off my soap box now.

  Equalizers are a must for most. Few people have the perfect listening room or even the perfect set of speakers.

  There’s a reason people love the “disco smile,” and it ain’t just the way it looks. It’s also easy on the ears!

  Straight up- I&apos;m almost 70 now and was a BIG audio freak from 1969 to today! EQ&apos;s are INDISPENSABLE!! YOU alone can shape your speaker, receiver, tape and records to sound PRECISELY as you wish them to sound, with a 16 band EQ with multiple turnover frequencies on each band!
