PROS
  • • Passive design delivers exceptionally clean, musical equalization without phase shift.
  • • 6H23n tubes impart a subtle warmth and harmonic richness, switchable to solid-state.
  • • Relay bypass ensures a completely transparent bypass, preserving the signal integrity.
  • • Robust, 3U rack construction feels incredibly solid and durable for studio use.
CONS
  • • High-end price point places it firmly in the professional studio market.
  • • 230V mains requirement limits usability for many users without a voltage converter.
  • • Passive design requires more gain staging consideration; may need preamp support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Passive EQs require more careful gain staging, as they don't provide any amplification; you'll need to ensure adequate preamp gain for optimal signal levels.
Tube mode adds a subtle warmth and harmonic complexity, while solid-state offers a cleaner, more transparent equalization response – both are incredibly musical.
The 11 frequencies per band are precisely selected and offer a wide range of tonal options, though it’s not a fully continuous frequency selection like some digital EQs.
