Graphic equilizers?


This may be obvious to most of you, but it isn't to me. I'm in the process of upgrading my speakers from PSB 5T's to Vandersteens, model yet to be determined. I've gotten good advice on other threads about this topic. The PSB's have an aluminum tweeter that can sound so harsh it gives me a headache. I've tried placement, tissue paper taped over the tweeter which works, sort of, and I have some "tweeter rings" on the way. I'm driving them with a Creek 5350 integrated amp, which does not have tone controls. Wouldn't an equilizer solve ALL the problems? I used to own one made by Sound Craftsman that was touted to add no distortion to the signal. I know that we now have digital correction, but the price is beyond me. Does anyone out there use an equilizer, and if so what model? I would appreciate advice.

A graphic equalizer is a Band-Aid that will never stop the bleeding. Unless you have a horrible room it is wiser to fix the problem at its source. Try other speakers and/or other electronics with the speakers you have.
