[QUOTE="DidUHearThat?, post: 4803785, member: 594758"] Your thinking of acoustic phasing. Analog EQ's induce electrical phasing and harmonics into the music signal. Analog eq's work by manipulating the audio; spliting it into bands with crossovers points and phasing. All analog eq's induce electrical phasing and harmonics. When the amount of eq boost is subtle the phasing noise is not, usually, noticable, but hard boosts cause noticalbe phasing, even with the highest quality eq. With simple low quality eq's it is even more apparent. The electric phasing is heard as a muddiness and subtle distortion (not a hard clipping) around the crossover points that reduces clarity. Narrow phasing is heard only near the crossover points, while severe phasing can be heard across much further up and down the frequency band from the crossover point. Harmonic noise is heard only at a doubling of the frequencies. [/QUOTE]
