dbx 215s Dual 15-band Graphic Equalizer Reviews

I bought this to replace my old equalizer that died in my home stereo system to allow better fine tuning of the speakers to the room they are in than just the high and low dials on the receiver give you. This equalizer is worth every penny. It does not have a power on switch therefore it's been powered on for over five years in my system with no issues. All leds still work. No sliders have become weak or broken. This unit is a workhorse and would recommend any day of the week.

I bought this E.Q. to tame the high end on a pair of tower speakers with extended high frequency response
(40 khz). Without this E.Q. these speakers were painful to listen to.
This unit works perfectly in this application and I am very happy with it.
My sakes rep always follows through.

So far so good, works great.

Put one of these in my audio rack and glad I did. It fine tunes the overall sound of my system to each specific venue / room with very little effort. If your looking for a great EQ at an affordable price you can't go wrong with unit.

My acoustical tuned room took all the highs out of the listening experience. So we added this eq and got control over the sound. Got those highs back and a little bit more.

Using this in a small home studio mostly on synths and a drum machine so far, and it's great. I like some of the features that other eqs don't have, such as an input gain stage. Haven't gotten around to putting the guitar through it yet, but I already know it's going to be awesome playing around with the mid frequencies. Nice power supply cable (no wall-wart!) is also a huge plus! Fifteen bands per side, and a very nice price. dbx!!!

I am "re-outfitting my church's P.A. system and the graphic was just one more necessary piece of gear. Sweetwater has been very helpful during this process. --- Steve Huston

I have been using a couple of these for years. It was time to add a new one. I highly recommend dbx eqs.

This baby is amazing, sound come out good. Thanks for fast shipping and very satisfied service

I was concerned because this is the budget version of the DBX EQ. No more concerns. Each frequency has a dramatic effect on the sound. I was able to dial in my system perfectly. What a difference. I previously had a Rane EQ in my rack which was dropping out and, I now realize, sounded terrible. Always go DBX. I'm likely to buy another of these for my monitors.

I have this patched through the vintage Harman/Kardon power amp in my living room, and it made all the difference! Quiet, and really helped match the system to the room. It doesn't have an on/off switch, but that doesn't matter for me because the H/K has a switched outlet on the back. Very pleased.

Solid construction. Noise free. Excellent performance. The low cut really works. A+++ for Harman and Sweetwater.

I use this for the floor monitors, gives an easy to sing all night sound.
dbx calls it an entery level product any professional would be glad to have it

It does exactly what a good EQ should do. Pure and simple. DBX rocks!

12/8/17 This EQ works as it should. Made in China. I bought it for live PA use to replace an old EQ in my rack. I needed and EQ with XLR in and outs along with the TRS ins and outs option for versatility. I wanted a name brand product with a good quality record for longevity. I stay away from Behringer because of its shaky reputation for issues and long term reliability. I would have bought the peavey but it offered XLR ONLY ins and outs. The price point is where it should be on the Peavey. It like all others now, is also China made.

I use the dbx unit with the +- 12 button on. To me that allows the eq work like the others I have had in the past at its full potential. I will use it with the Harmon Soundcraft Signature 22 mixer live.
The manual states: May contain Lithium battery. Replace with CR 2032.Hmmm.

Seems to be a good unit if your will to over pay for it. It carries the GREAT Sweetwater 2 year warranty for peace of mind. Thanks Sweetwater !

I have a small studio and this has helped smooth out the low end and clean up the mid's which will in turn help the quality of my recordings. 15 band is plenty and this thing is quiet and doesn't seem to add any color or vibe, just eq to my ears.

Outstanding 2/3 octive EQ. delivers the performance as promised. Compact, one rack space design, with everything needed to enhance the sound output of my system. The 12db boost / cut selection buttons are a great addition.

I needed an inexpensive eq to tame a few frequencies in my monitors, and this unit fit the bill. Solid construction, no frills, a known brand and great sound with no noise. With XLR and trs connections on the back, it can insert it in on any rig I need it for.

The dbx eq works as expected and does a good job. It offers the great option of TRS ins and outs as well as XLR's. To get the full benefit of use, press the + 12db button to increase the hz eq range. This range is standard with most eq's.
I do not believe it is competitively priced. It should be about $30 cheaper for what you are getting so I gave it a 4 star rating.

Clean, quiet and effective. It does what i need it to do and I like it.

I needed a one space stereo EQ To replace some old ones in a couple portable PA Systems and I found these guys. They work great. DBX always makes quality gear. Sweetwater has the great price and how can you pass that up. Love the option of Balanced and Unbalanced I/O's. I highly suggest you grab one you won't be dissappointed.
