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?

Warnerwh...By admitting that the Behringer is "transparent" in your system you have admitted that your system is inferior :-(

My condolances, and, as Rauliruegas says. "enjoy the music".

I use the 2496, but my preamp only has a unbalanced processor loop. So I use XLR/RCA adapters. I like it in my system. I would give it a try, and if you dont like it, it will be easy to resell.

Undertow. A very good analogy and well said.

Matrix is correct, get yourself a McIntosh preamp with equalization. The more current models are designed in such a way that the tone controls are truely out of the signal path when they are set to 0db. Although I personally do not use equalization now but have in the past, it could hold water that one slight turn of a tone control could save you hundrerds if not thousands of dollars in tweaks!

audiophiles. Actually I don't know how many people have said that.

The amount of destruction caused by the DEQ 2496 compared to the good it's capable of is negligable. After 35 years in the hobby I think I have a handle on what's important and what is not important to me. Many others seem to agree.

I've been told by others that my system is of the best they've ever heard. It is the best I've ever heard:)
