In a recent issue of The Sensible Sound I reviewed
the Rane THX-44 equalizer. In an earlier issue I had
also reviewed the THX-22 version.

Analog equalizers in high end audio (stereo) are generally
a waste of time and money. Thirty-one pots only serve to
dull out microdynamics and articulation of the human voice.
Many of the high quality pre-amps manufactured over the
last 20 years come without any bass or treble control
whatsoever, for this reason.











Powell, since you're responding to this egomaniacal windbag and libel-spewing
audio clown, please ask him to demonstrate his scientific integrity by telling
us once again about his double blind tests. As I understand it, and as most
other RAO normals understand it, they've been conclusively shown to be bogus by
several experienced audio professionals. Therefore, his writings (which may
also be at least partially plagiarized) aren't worth the toilet paper they are
written on.

I've suggested that he and Krueger, as part of their mutual love fest and
rehabilitation consider both finger painting and basket weaving. Both require
a minimm amount of social interaction and help to hide their limited
communication and social skills. OTOH, they can alway ciontinue responding to
the internal voices in their head telling them about EHEE & RAO conspiracy
theories.
