AudioSource EQ100 Stereo Graphic Equalizer

Not a lot to say in this review other than this is a dependable EQ that has nice lights and all the functions and buttons are still going strong as I type this. The one thing I noticed compared to my old realistic brand EQ is that this EQ's sliders are still as silky smooth as the day it came out of the box and haven't become scratchy when you move them. Considering the amount of dust my audio equipment sees, that's saying a lot.

Recently I purchased a Logitech Z-2300 speaker system at a great price from Amazon to use primarily with our TV/DirectTV. I knew it was really designed to use with a computer system, but the reviews were so good that I thought I'd give it a try. Sure enough - as everyone said - the Z-2300 bass and volume were astounding. But the midrange was surprisingly weak. Some reviewers stated that using a software equalizer would improve the Z-2300 a lot so I figured, why not try a hardware equalizer? I seached for info and found that the EQ100 was very highly rated so I bought one from Amazon and it made a tremendous difference. The EQ100 has an equalizer in/out button that you can press to immediately hear the difference it makes. And it makes a BIG difference. Strangely, the sound seems "wider." For $60 I'm happy.

I HAVE AN EXCELLENT STEREO SYSTEM,BUT SOMETIMES I FIND THE MUSIC AND MOVIES NEED SOUND ENHANCEMENT.I HAVE NOT USED AN EQUALIZER IN MANY YEARS AND FOUND MOST UNITS FUZZ UP THE SOUND .THE AUDIOSOURCE EQ100 HAS VERY LOW DISTORTION .THIS WILL PUT YOU INSIDE THE STUDIO OR VASTLY IMPROVE POORLY MASTERED OR BASS SHY MATERIAL.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED YOU WONT BE SORRY .IT IS ON SALE AT JAND R MUSIC WORLD FOR 59 DOLLARS AS OF 10/27/05.

I haven't had an equalizer since 1979 so I had to reaquaint myself with their usage.This one is a terrific deal for the money,for like most electronics , it would have been much more money years ago.It real shines when trying to brighten up the sound of cassette tapes since their high end is lacking compared to CDs.I do not use it for newer remastered CDs because I find nothing amiss with their sound;however some older CDs are definitely improved with equalization.So if your music collection is a mixed bag of old and new recordings,do yourself a favor and pick up one of these!

This eq makes your equipment sound like a studio system. It's sounds crystal clear.
