[QUOTE="GSteg, post: 1217473, member: 543107"] a 15 band EQ will be sufficient enough [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] You'll probably want 31 bands on the higher-end horns, but the cd1e will do well with minimum EQ, unless you have some nasty frequency response.
