Reviews

Many hit records!
I own one of these in my studio and it's one of my go to eq's! Made many gold and platinum records with this baby. Love the warmth, fatness and punch without the noise of a Pultec. It's a modern day Pultec!

MY GOTO EQ!!
Solid construction, amazing sound and effortless operation. What more can you ask for? This is by far the most musical EQ I've ever used. The perfect box for adding life to dull, boxy tracks and taking your records to the next level!
