I seriously don't understand the neglect for equalizers these days.
Funny answer: each band of the equalizer increases the "fiddle factor" by a power of ten.


You need Stephen Hawking to figure the math out when you add parametric Equalization and crossovers with continuously variable slopes. It is amazing that crossing over the subs at 80 and a 12 db curve does sound noticeably different than a 6 or 18 db curve. I have found that this is the key to good integration, getting the slopes right so the mids flow into the sub, etc. But fiddle - crap - you can't stop. I actually use 6 presets and move them around per the music. It is an illness.
