[QUOTE="adam71, post: 4646375, member: 549079"] First of all an EQ is only going to be as good as the rest of the system (signal chain). Garbage in, garbage out. Second of all, EQs are for adjusting the system to make up for the challenging acoustic environment that is your vehicle's interior. In a perfect world you would NOT need an EQ. Thirdly, if you find yourself BOOSTING bands then you have a lot of problems. In a proper setup you will find yourself lowering peaks...........NOT boosting valleys. I personally believe that an SQ system needs an EQ of some sort because no interior of a vehicle is acoustically ideal for music. That being said I use a 31 band EQ via the P9 combo. All processing is done in the digital domain, as well as the x-over network. This eliminates a lot of A/D and D/A conversion. That is NOT to say that outboard EQs can't sound amazing. I remember running a PPI DEQ-230. Great sounding unit. [/QUOTE]
