Hello guys, please, could someone tell me if this EQ would work with a normal home audio system?. Thanks!

Yes it would but input/output conns are XLR and home audio systems use RCA plugs. Need to get conv cables. More basic question is why you want to use this EQ in home audio system..it is designed for pro audio EQ. To EQ room/speaker would need more equipment like signal gen & sound level meter. This can be done automatically with some high end receivers, but DBX does it much better but lots of work.

This type of EQ is sort of old fashioned. It uses an analog input output setup, via your tape monitor loop (if your receiver has one). It was a very common method of using an equalizer until everything went digital. I cannot comment on the more modern receivers, as I still use my same Yamaha from the mid 90's. Mine has a tape monitor option, so basically you run your receiver into the EQ, run the output back into the tape monitor input on your amp(or pre-amp, or receiver), and enable the tape monitor option on your receiver. You need to make sure you can do so, as this is not a feature on all of the simplified electronic devices you see these days.

The result is definitely different than an EQ. The bass channel is more like an overdrive that doesn't clip (hard to describe it's not distortion) and the high-end is this subtle octave harmonizer. I was very impressed with the inprovement on early 90's gangsta rap that sounds muddy. We use it for our live electronic band to make our sound less muddy and it's really be a big help. I'm not sure it would make a different on the latest music releases though.

Hi David: My unit is very quiet. To test the neutrality of sound I set the EQ sliders at 6db across the frequency spectrum. I then switched between the equalized setting and by passing the EQ entirely; compensating for volumes. I was unable to detect any difference in the sound. I cannot comment on the difference in the two units as I have only heard the older one. Good luck with your EQ hunt.Harry Harris

The eq is for a 12 volt car audio system so it won't work with a pc. Also the outputs are rca preouts so whatever the eq controls has to have rca jack inputs.

I don't find the EQ to make all that much difference but I never do. The sound quality out of the deck is excellent but I have added aftermarket speakers as well and a subwoofer. I wouldn't expect a miraculous change if you leave in low quality OEM speakers.

I'm wondering if anyone who owns the system can tell me how the sound is for regular 2 channel audio. I want this to be an awesome home stereo system as well, and use my apple tv to enjoy itunes through it!

Depends on what kind of speakers ya got, but it sounds like it could have changed the EQ settings, try plugging them into it again but this time don't click any buttons and wait a sec, it could automatically change to best sound through headphones. Certain headphone jacks (a large majority of them) don't recognize the electrical feedback from the 3 button remote, rather just the fact that something was plugged in.

I'm not sure this will work with your system. You would have to call our Audio Dept. because we would have to special order your particular frequency. Thanks.

Yes this is compatible with other brands. just ensure you have a pair of RCA out put to put into the EQ.

The best try is the amp. I'm not sure this system works fine in home stereo.I have a Mark Bass amp and this system works great for me!

I'm sorry there's not enough information here . Where is your mixer in the chain from input to output i.e.. speakers. A integrated amp should have a tape monitor loop where the E.Q. would go and it would be able to use it to effect the sound signature from any input. This might help. The output of my pre amp goes to the input of the E.Q. then the out put of the E.Q. goes to the inputs of my two amps. See that way it can modifie the signal so the amps produce the signal you want to go to the speakers

Check everything:1. Computer volume still correct?2. Amp volume ok?3. EQ not messed with?4. Headphone cable ok?5. Cable to computer ok?6. Tube seated?Check the obvious first... Otherwise, I have no idea, mine sounds great!

This would be perfect...for a little boost and more if needed. I use this device for my cellphone, tablet, laptop, and any other media that will take the plug for this. The equalizer I don't use...as the presets are all bass or all at max, which can be overwhelming. I would definitely give it a try if I were you...can't go wrong.

The "eq" is for your entire sound system. Since FM is a part of it. The answer is yes. Is that what you meant? You can equalize it for recording too, but I've never done it. I listen to everything through the "tape monitor mode", the recommended method of hook-up. It works beautifully, unlike the HP 100-210 computer I bought last week.

Dear Tracy, This will be a good addition to your system. I have been and audiophile for 30 years, and started back in vinyl, and this little amp is great for the price. Be sure to hook the RCA cable input to you AUX, not Phono input. Hope this has been helpful. Good listening. Bill

EQ can help with room acoustics and non-linear speakers. Since it affects ALL notes and voices of a keyboard, it is not a good voicing method. Suggest you shop for a keyboard that you like.
