  I know this is heresy, but...
I am interested in adding some sort of equalization within my system....tone controls for lack of a better analogy. I know that years ago Audio Control used to make a band equalizer. Anyone out there making that sort of device today? Basically I am looking to add a little more bottom to my system without adding a subwoofer or adding a lot of noise to the sound. Thoughts?

If you put the DEQ2496 between the preamp and the power amp its A/D will be working with only a few low order bits. The advantage of 24 bit hardware will be lost. You may not like the sound.

The solution to this is to attenuate at the input to the power amp so that the signal going through the DEQ2496 is at a healthy level. Set things up so that the peak level throughout a CD, indicated by the DEQ2496, is about 3 dB below cliping.
