On most projects, I use the 430 and API's together. As I said, the NSEQ just occasionally for another band. The sound of the 10K shelf on this Sontec is unbelievable! More shelf freqs would be nice but I use the Algo Blue a lot for that. The thing that I liked about the NSEQ over most Sontecs was the transparency, but now with the 430B I have now, it's easily as transparent as the NSEQ and with the Sontec curves to boot! The 462 I used in Scott Hull's room is indeed a very nice sounding unit. Only bummer is no sum and difference options. Dave

Hi Dave, we have a re-issue 432 and had 7.5 and 12kHz shelves fitted with a switch, next to the 50/100Hz switch. I used to really like the low end on the API, especially the 200Hz shelf!

...I went back to N802's as well. I still really like the Revels but somehow they just didn't work in this room as well as the B&W's. The bass impact of the 802's is more of what I need to hear. Go figure. Dave

Now that's news, Dave.  We should have a beer soon and discuss...!

Lately with the weather so awesome, I've been walking down 8th from Penn to the studio. I always think of you when I pass your building. You should come by soon and listen.

Looks nice Tom.

I use a simple white china marker spot on the back of the knobs near the chassis to give me a visual.

It's a such great EQ, coupled with my Sontec, and occasional surgical tweak from my Z-Sys the job gets done nicely.

I posted this somewhere around here last year... just a straight scribe on the stock NSEQ knobs, done by my landlord in his machine shop.  Easy job, I think.
