And how many bands would this parametric EQ (presumably we are talking about digital EQ here) have? RC isn't just about trying to manipulate frequency response (although admittedly that is a large part of it). IMHO if you want to go down the room eq route you'd need a combination of parametric (to fix resonances/suckouts) and shelving (to shape the balance to taste)... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... ...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some very expensive cables ;o) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38739 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
