The Summit Audio EQP-200B is a full range two channel passive equalizer that utilizes vacuum tube technology to overcome any gain loss. The EQP-200B uses both solid state and tube technologies to produce the warm sounds associated with tubes, while providing the reliability of solid state devices. This passive tube EQ is an incredibly warm sounding and accurate equalizer, hand built in the USA to the most exacting standards.
Based on the original Pultec program equalizer design, the EQP-200B uses a tried-and-true design with some added Summit magic. Jensen 990 op amps on the output give a clear and open sound to the passive EQ elements in the filter circuits. The EQP-200B adds that special touch to your mix without the inherent phase anomalies of active EQ circuits. Tracking? Try the EQP-200B on vocals, kick, or snare, a secret weapon of some of the world’s top engineers.
