I was just reading about the Behringer DEQ2496, an overfeatured
underachieving EQ, and was interested in how it has a mic input on it
dedicated for a spectrum analyzer which is graphicly overlaid over the EQ.
That, I might pay $375 for...
So I'm thinking I could use the EQ for a drum monitor when using the
spectrum analyzer for more important issues, when I read more about the mic
input...

Check it out thoroughly, because the original Behringer digital EQ could not
perform spectral analysis & EQ simultaneously. One or the other.

15V phantom power ?!! FIFTEEN?!!
It's the perfect voltage to ruin any shot the unit had at real-world
usefulness! Too much for an electret, not enough for any decent SDC. At
18V a Rode NT5 would be happy. 3 measly freakin volts away from brilliance.

It's enough to run an AKG C451 (or a C414B-ULS for that matter,) & these are
often used in the diffuse field for RTA purposes due to their rising HF
characteristic.
