These were sold in HUGE quantities in the nineteen-seventies and eighties...as a result, they turn up regularly (and CHEAPLY) at thrift stores and used-audio dealers! Back in my younger days, virtually EVERYONE had a "standard" 10- band/channel EQ, since they worked MUCH better than the old "Tone" or the later "Bass" and "Treble"controls! Yes, there are/were MUCH better equalizers...but they WEREN'T cheap! For example, one can use a "parametric multi-band" EQ...IF one has the skills and training to do so (as well as the FUNDS...?!). Second...78rpm phonorecords of our favourite era basically have NO useful content above 7kHz or so...and acoustic recordings have littlle below about 100 or so Hertz! What little bass was recorded can be retrieved by turning up the lower channels on one's eq (note that AC hum [60Hz in North America, 50 in Europe] MAY be a problem!). Steven C. Barr
