Default Behringer FBQ6200 Ultra-Musical 31-Band Stereo Graphic Equalizer

Since much has been written about the pros and cons of Behringer equipment
I wonder if anyone might be willing to comment about a specific Behringer
component, namely the Ultragraph Pro FBQ6200 Ultra-Musical 31-Band Stereo
Graphic Equalizer with FBQ Feedback Detection System, Behringer's
"top-of-the-line" equalizer?

According to the company literature this Equalizer incorporates Swiss Alps
potentiometers, which surely have a good reputation, and it also features
a
relay operated "hard" bypass, in order to permit instant comparison
between
the equalized vs. the unequalized signal.

Unfortunately I have no idea about the quality, or sound, of the op amps
used in this Behringer equalizer.

I do not intend to use this equalizer in a professional recording setup,
but
rather for a home stereo system in order to hopefully adjust the system's
response in order to cope with certain room anomalies.

Thank you very much for your kind consideration and comments.





A better choice, assuming you want tostay with Behringer is the DEQ 2496.
For whatit costs and whatit does, it's very much better than might be
expected and digital EQ is generally considered a better way to go.
