I use the upper tone controls on my McIntosh C46 8-band equalizer to tame brightness. How does their performance differ from a standard treble control, on other Macs or on other brands, such as Accuphase? Thank you.
OK, thanks for that. From the manual page,it looks like the highest control is centered at 4kHz, as the label says, not 8. Aren't normal treble controls mainly for 10kHz+?
Yep, that's where I think the confusion lies. You can take a look at the treble response and see it doesn't really take off until above 5 kHz or so. The equalizer tone controls on the c46 are more for tuning room effects than adjusting the highs and lows generally. I was going to buy a c46 until I realized the equalization controls had a different intention than the single treble control.
