Sidechain eq quality

The quality of the EQ shouldn't matter in a sidechain application, should it? Since the EQ isn't actually part of the audio signal chain.

No it shouldn't; as long as you have the frequency bands you need, the sonic character of the eq matters not. So, go ahead and buy that $24 EQ pedal and use it as a sidechain EQ.
