How closely are the units matched?
I've been doing FFT sweeps as part of the testing on every unit. The HF and LF sections are very closely matched. The MF has a little bit of variance, due to accumulated component tolerances, but I'm not sure how critical it is. I've scheduled some time at my partner's studio today to go give two units that measure differently a listen, and I'll report back. Watch this space.
If there's an audible difference, we'll figure out how to make matched pairs available.
Also, when you ask for "stereo EQ," are you looking for one box with two independent channels, or are you looking for a device with one set of controls that tweaks both channels together?
A switching high pass at 20, 40, 80, 200, 400 at the front of this would really seal the deal if you ever get into a rev2. A stepped low pass too.
It sounds like I've got an industrial espionage problem...have you been peeking at my workbench?
I've got a prototype HP/LP filter together, but nowhere near complete...I was hoping for swept rather than stepped, and as a separate unit from the EQ, possibly 2 channels in a 1/2 rack.
Please consider giving the model one b a try - I know what you're looking for by asking that. I found that the bell curves gave me the results that I look for in coupling an HP filter with a low shelf EQ...boost without bloat.
