What They Say

I really like the Cambridge... you can create really extreme EQ curves and really do some surgery if you needed to.

Dweezil Zappa

Zappa Plays Zappa

I love the Cambridge EQ because it sounds great, and also because it lets me adjust it by dragging points on the display.

Elliot Mazer

Neil Young

I turn to the Cambridge EQ for cutting out those unwanted frequencies.

    Workable EQ

    I have quite a few iconic EQs, but their magic remains mysterious to me and consequently the results can be elusive. The Cambridge EQ is more straight forward. You can hunt down the frequency you find annoying and turn it down. No magic, but it works.

    Nostalgia city

    It's an EQ. But it's an eq from 2005...and thus ..I spent a ton of money on it back in the day.. it was important to me...and I don't want to forget those times.
