師兄，你部係咪passive EQ?

Any ching has heard or play around with this EQ?

any user report for KT EQP-KT for hifi around here? ( YES IT IS a 老翻Pultec)

用左 eq 幾個月系舊digital版二幾年前機，接法cdp coaxial 到eq , eq 同軸返 dac , dac ＞ pre amp 但係最近細聲左好多，重接左二次吾店，吾知原因？

今日接cdp＞ dac＞ pre amp, 正常返音量

是否部eq 壞咗？

Merry Christmas

正版Pultec EQP-1A3

KT EQP-KT相信應該係老翻Pultec EQP-1A3，不過用料冇正版咁足...

luccus兄~請問KT EQP-KT好唔好聲? 我都心思思想入一對玩...
佢冇volumn control. 用一對會唔會大細聲?

Hycor 4201是Hycor於1953年推出的Passive Program EQ，Arthur Davis作品，50年代中好多專業Studio用!

Lang LXQ-1是Lang於60年代中推出的5聲道錄音室用真空管Equalizer，每聲道只有高低音兩檔調節，正如孟波兄所說此機主要是錄音室用來剪裁或調節音色用途!

EQ有兩個用法，一個係修正環境，另一個係剪裁音色，後者係兩聲道同步。

我無玩EQ（有玩類似東西）並非踩場，而係見大家EQ兩聲道推子都較到一樣來吹下水，一般家居左右多是不對稱，吸音，反射，殘響都有分別引致兩隻喇叭音色有差異，而EQ設計多是分開左右調較，估計用意是除了均衡室內響應，另外亦方便大家去修正左右音色差異，覺得可以嘗試左右不一樣調較可能有新發現都未定

There are many talks about this Klark Teknik and also Warm Audio pultec clones on the net. It seems the KT has favourable reviews over the Warm Audio.

To begin with they fear that they would saturate the market with those classic designs, much like when Chinese cheap valve machines were flooded into. Not yet!!

According to the reviews, don't expect the KT would perform like a pultec as they don't share the same components, for example as basic/important as the transformers.

That said most agree that if you treat the machine on its own merit then you won't be disappointed. Most commented that they were relatively transparent and didn't change the sonics that much when inserted.

The common complaint seems to be bad Chinese 12AU7 tubes they installed which went bad quite quickly.

For around US$300(Amazon US) or £299 in the UK I suppose we shouldn't complain!!

不過外型似Pultec EQP-1A3多過Pultec EQP-1A多DD...!

Soul of a Classic EQ
At Sweetwater, the name Pultec commands reverence. Magical tools revered for their ability to improve the sound of audio simply by passing signal through them. Pultec equalizers like the EQP-1A are the stuff of legend. They're all over many of your favorite records. Rare vintage units cost a pretty penny — if you can even find one in good working order. Enter the Klark Teknik EQP-KT Classic Tube Equalizer. Inspired by the classic Pultec, the EQP-KT is a vintage Class A circuit design constructed from top-drawer discrete components meticulously selected to meet or exceed the specs of the original EQP-1A. Combining unparalleled precision and signal integrity with the warmth of its all-tube circuitry, Klark Teknik EQP-KT delivers mastering-grade EQ at a price any project studio can afford. You can't afford to be without one.


A modern take on a classic tube design
Ever since Eugene Shenk's original designs in the mid-1950s, engineers have prized Pultecs for their smooth, musical sound, and have used them at all stages of the recording process, from tracking to mastering. To achieve the characteristic warmth of this legendary EQ, Klark Teknik uses hand-selected 12AX7 and 12AU7 tubes. And for optimal audio reproduction in studio and live environments, Klark Teknik incorporated custom Midas input and output transformers into the EQP-KT design. This combination of high-quality components delivers ultra-low-noise output with tight, punchy bass, silky midrange, and brilliant, airy highs.

Boost, cut, or both — it all sounds great
Take a look at the EQP-KT — or a Pultec EQP-1A — and you'll see they're not designed like your typical equalizer. The two-band design basically gives you flexible low shelving, along with broad-bandwidth midrange peak control. Because the boost and attenuate controls work independently you can use an old trick to add weight to the bass region while also notching a bit above the cutoff point, by boosting and attenuating at the same time (try it on kick drum and you'll never look back). On the high-frequency side, you can set separate ranges for the boost and attenuation. Said another way, you can boost at 12kHz and cut at 5k, adding "air" to a track without increasing presence.
