Thiel 3.5 equalizer advice

I am using Thiel 3.5 speakers without the equalizer. Does anyone have any insights (or firsthand experience) on the overall difference in sound that results if I bought and added one to my system. Does it just impact bass response or will it impact other sound qualities? Does Thiel still make the equalizers? Thanks for any insights.

You can always get something like DiracLive or miniDSP and configure your own. If they can be bi-amped, you can relegate the EQ to the bass amp.

Best,

^CS 3's had two pairs of binding posts on each cabinet, the 3.5's only one pair.

Check out my posts in the last few pages of the Thiel Owners thread.  Others have also weighed in on the equalizer on that thread.

The Equalizer doesn't  just work in the bass. It works at other frequencies to help flatten the overall response.

Good Listening.
