There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The knobs push in and lock, push again to release (found this out by accident) So, once adjusted, you can push them all in for a flush look. Does not have the build quality of the Kenwood graphic EQ it replaced but no regrets. Two things I found slightly annoying: 1 - The knobs are not aligned to true vertical...at their center detent, they are all skewed slightly to the right (12:01 instead of 12:00). When extended, the knobs are off-center in the faceplate and they flex slightly. None of these are dealbreakers unless you must have perfection. For $40, and the significant improvement in clarity and control, I can live with those minor flaws. Highly recommended.
My only complaint is the brightness of the blue LEDs. The angle of my dashboard lines the LEDs up for perfect blinding blue light right into my eyes. I'm going to have to it up and adjust the LEDs.
Also thats how bose does there systems they find the right frequency to adjust and preset into memory.
With the peq 15 you basically have thousands of bands you can adjust.
Build quality:8 of 10. Pros: double sided boards, sealed volume and adjustment pots,film capacitors,seperate sub control
Cons: center detent not always in center,could use one more band.
People tend to bash Planet, but they always perform for me.

そこそこ使えます、自作電源て14V程の電圧で作動させています、+-とプルアップの
配線が必要となりますがミュートとしても使えます(使っています)これ1つでフロント、リア、
サブウーハーをカバーできるのでそれなりの使い方ができます、イコライザーの効果はよくわからないので評価できません。
フロントパネルはシルバーとブラックが入っていて好みで交換できました。
電圧が高けれは良い音になると考えて14Vに設定しましたがコネクターの処理が
手間だったので★1つ減らしました。
