George:

I am not the Hitchhiker police by any means but the quoted comment is just unfair...I would agree that there are two different camps here and, for the sake of ease, let us call them i) George's camp and ii) Adam/Dennis' camp...and, just because ken [and, by extension me] are not in your camp does not mean that he either overpayed or got screwed...

I might readily pay USD 150,000 for a Porsche 911 but that does not mean that I either got screwed or overpayed simply because I believe and perceive there to be value in such a vehicle over a USD 40,000 Camaro...

Look, net net, Ada,/Dennis have their view and you ahve your view...and, to me, until the arguement is based on math and science [apoligies, my formal training coming through] including the separation of what is and is not audible no one camp will be able to convince the other camp [though I do wish that Adam/Dennis would bring out the math]...

While it may upset some here and, for the first time ina decade since being a member here, I do not agree with you and will [again and as noted in my above post] throw my lot in with Adam/Dennis...

With that, the best that we can hope for at this point is that ADA/Meridian or anyone else makes a pre/pro with the built in fucntionality of the QSC [or, whatever is necessary] to do the job right...


PS. And not to poke you in the eye but simplyt to ask a questions...were the Meridian way the unversally accepted best solution/way then woul dit not be the case that everyone would own a Meridian...

PPS. And, as far as Roger Dressler is concerned, I ahve spoken with him and woudl note that the only pre/pros that he would consider are the ADA and the Classe [which he owns]....the reason being that no other processors' EQ is sufficient for his needs menaing that he too is advocating the use of EQ above and beyond that which Meridian offers...does this make hima bad guy?

PPPS. And, thankfully, finally...ADA's MACH IV B has a built in PEQ yet ADA offers the TEQ [as an external box / offering only] and, most notably, the TEQ-12 so that all channels are run through the external DSP engine...the conclusion being, that they too feel that the beenfits of external EQ outweight the related cons...
