Without a closed theater cabinet, you're viewing experience would take a big hit.Ĭompared to a previous version of our selection, we've eliminated a pair of EQ units that were decent performers, but whose interfaces couldn't really be considered graphic. We did get rid of the EMB EQB75 10-Band to make room for that BSS model, but also because it positioned itself as a home theater unit, but had slider leds that were so bright they could light up a space that, by design, should be as dark as possible. The contour shaping makes those abrupt changes a little smoother. These can round out the curve around the 50Hz and 14KHz sliders, which are posts where there often need to be pretty hefty cuts to keep harsh high end or buzzy low end in check.

The Art EQ355, for example, features RCA connectivity in addition to the more traditional XLR and 1/4-inch jacks, making it easy to hook up things like DVD players.įor pro audio use, the BSS Audio Opal FCS-966 is easily a top choice, not least of all for its contour shaping abilities. While the top performers in this category continue to be models aimed at use in recording studios or in live performance settings, there remain outstanding options that are equally suitable, if not even better, for use with home stereos and entertainment systems.
