Dirtyragamuffin, good luck with your engineering career. The pro side needs more people with an audiophile attitude.
I really disagree with your attitude towards EQ devices. I looked at your system, which looks real nice, and it includes a vinyl rig and multiple tubes amplifiers. It's a little hypocritical of you to accuse other piece of equipment basically being a distortion devices. Phono preamps/tubes, talk about your EQ and distortion adding components!
One think you'll learn about audio engineering - whatever works, works. Don't limit yourself with pre-existing biases.
