So, I'm playing around with my system tonight. I have a Rogue Audio Sphinx, Martin Logan Motion 15s and a UTurn turn table with a Grado Black 1. I would think the sound would be somewhat flat with no treble or bass control, but still sound pretty good.
Listening to Max Richter, Four Seasons, the high end is horrible, screeching. My question is, at what point, and to what level do you start to add tone control, Bass or even an equalizer. I grew up with equalizers and always thought they made my system sound better. Equalizers seem to be obsolete in this day and age. I know most AV receivers have built in equalizers, but are they the same as an actual component?
