I want to use these speakers in the home I am building,

to mod the boxes; I will try the EQ, and will thoroughly
tes repositioning them. However, in looking at the EQ
II,s pics it would appear to control the audio curve
just as do ordinary bass and treble controls on my
receiver; why can't I use the latter and forget the
questionably-functioning 30-yr EQ I'll end up with?

I think they sound best in small rooms, and the closer
you are to the speaker, the better they sound.

IOW, more direct sound, less reflected sound...
