As your electronics, spkrs, and cartridges become more sophisticated the inevitable "trade-off" becomes noticable enough to negate the use of an equalizer. I'm saying that even with the equalizer set to zero effect, it can be heard in the system. Cleaner electronics and more neutral speakers will fix MOST system problems. I just can't hack the extra noise & distortion they add! Rayjay -
