Most receivers do not have 10 band equalizers.
I use an old ADC Paragraphic 36 band unit to modify the sound of my
Acoustats, already very good speakers.

Posting this could get you drummed out of the Hi-Fi Corps, Robert. You
mustn't be careless of your membership.

Worse than that:
1. The source ends of my systems are all Japanese, except for afew Hafler
preamps I use as line drivers.
2. I prefer beefy American MOSFET power amps to tubes and things made by the
Foreign Devils. Exception made for Halcro, even though I've never heard one.
3. I am a devotee of synthesized surround -- not the kind found on DVDs, but
that produced by the Sony TA-E1000ESD preamps and Yamaha theater pieces. See

I do have a couple pure two channel signal paths, however. And I chortle at
those who extoll Sennheiser headphones. Those who haven't been exposed to
Stax Lambda Pros live in ignorance .

The only thing I could say to be more obnoxious is "been there done that"
