    Amp with variable loudness as peak limiter (?) + mids control for intelligibility. For use with headphones, mainly speech.

    I'm in need of some advice, hope you can help. I'm looking for an integrated amplifier for use in professional remote interpreting. It looks as though no headphone amps have physical tone control knobs these days, so they are out of the question. I need physical tone control knobs, preferably...

    Mystery ADC Soundshaper 110 Variant - Similar to SS-100SL but different?

    Hi everyone! I recently picked up an ADC Sound Shaper 110 equalizer on Facebook Marketplace. It’s a 10-band stereo EQ with a built-in spectrum analyzer. To be honest, I’d never heard of ADC (Audio Dynamics Corporation) before. I mainly bought it for the aesthetics—it looks great in my setup...

    Soundcraftsmen EQ slider replacement

    After removing, disassembling, cleaning, lubing, reassembly, and soldering thousands of Soundcraftsmen sliders; I thought it would be nice to install some new ones. For the right price, it may balance out by saving all those hours on labor. There are currently no adapter boards for this purpose...

    Schiit Lokius Equalizer with Single Ended Amp and Cornwall II Speakers

    I received a new Lokius Equalizer yesterday from Schiit and wanted to give my first impression on the EQ. It arrived quickly and well packaged. I bought the Lokius to add some subtle bass guitar and kick-drum punch to my system. I'm running a Fluance RT85 turntable with a 2M Blue cartridge...

    Need help connecting EQ to Amp | Marantz 1090 \ Marantz EQ20

    Hello, I'm trying to get clarity around the best way to connect this EQ to this amp, as I cannot get it to work. On the back of the 1090, there is AUX (that's where the DAC is connected) and I have a tape 1 and tape 2 monitor. Should you connect tape 1 out to the EQ's tape in, then the EQ's...

    Hi everyone! Thanks to you guys I finally got into vintage amp world and went with a pioneer sa7800, got it from ebay in very nice condition.

    Can the CR-1020/2020 Dolby FM Adaptor switch be used for EQs, etc?

    I'm a big fan of my current CR-800, but I'm looking to upgrade. I'm looking at the CR-1020, since I know the 2020 is out of my price range right now. It has just about everything I want, but I have one question: can the Dolby FM adaptor switch be used like the regular adaptor switches found on...

    Thoughts on dedicated EQ boxes, like my KEF 103.3

    I just recently acquired a super clean pair of KEF 103.3 loudspeakers, that also came with the dedicated KEF Kube EQ box. I've owned a lot of speakers over the past 4 decades, small bookshelf models up to fairly large floor standing units, but these are the best I've ever owned. The KEF Kube is...

    Messing with treble and bass makes ok speakers sound great

    Connect EQ to receiver with tape output, but no input

    As title says, I want to connect a equalizer with spectrum analyzer to my casseiver. It does not have tape inputs, only aux and phono and tape out. Can I connect tape out to EQ in and EQ out to AUX in? Would input selection work then? would it work with radio or internal cassette deck? Let me...

    Clipping/distortion from receiver...definitely internal EQ related

    So I have this aging receiver (TEAC AG-V8060) that has stood the test of time up until recently. I noticed that the left channel sounded like it was clipping. At first I thought I blew a woofer cone, since it was mostly occurring with the kick drum. I freaked out and took the cloth grille off...

    Quality modern equalizer and spectrum analyzer

    Why is it so challenging to find a decent component spectrum analyzer / EQ combo these days? Production seems to have really fallen off after the 80s. All I come across is vintage. I'm not very impressed with the limited EQs available in even some fairly high end receivers. Also, it's nice to...
