EDIT:
I'd like people to know I've since changed some values in the high end. I've configured the Q switch to provide a shelf option. I just found this post again and I changed the values a while ago so I don't know what the exact values of the changes were.
What I'm trying to say is if you take on this project I suggest you be prepared to experiment a bit as far as what frequencys and Q settings sound good to you.
in other words season to taste... :grin:
Hello all,
Just got back from three months of touring. I'm happy to be back and happy TT survived the madness. Its really good to see all of you here.
Touring was alot harder than expected and I'm sorry I couldn't keep you all informed and stay up to date in the forum. I did manage to meet one tech talker on the road and had alot of fun hanging out. wish I could have met more of you. maybe next time.
ANYHOW,
I had one week off during the three months and I managed to complete the passive eq I was working on that was based on NewYorkDaves design.
here it is:

I put SIX of these in one box and it just about drove me crazy!!!! I think Jaakko can feel me here...ALOT of wiring.
I used the SRPP stage found in the Gyraf pultec eq for gain make up.
I used paper and oil caps through out most of the high freqs. even some Vitamin Q's. All the inductors are high Q UTC's.
This thing sounds REALLY good. I have not been able to really give it a good tryout on a real recording, but everything works perfectly and just running some stereo songs through it makes me very excited.
I want to thank everyone here for making this possible especialy NewYorkDave and Jakob for thier designs...
and whoever is responsible for this forum (Ethan?) YOU ROCK.
good to be back,
Ian
