Do you happen to know the frequencies where the EQ affects the signal for lo and hi? It's shelving, I would assume. I'm just interested.

The Bass 'shelf' then I think was set at 100hz. The Treble is a peak filter and the center is about 3500-4000 hz (3.5-4k).

This means little unless you know how the 'shapes' work. The Treble lower part of the 'cone' is about 1-2k and is cut off at 20k. The Bass shelf cuts off at 20hz bottom and goes up the the mid area at the tail of the shelf.

Tech talk. Means little unless you can taste it from cross town from, just seeing the smoke!

Well I'm going to be very interested to hear/play this baby when she gets back from home. Thanks for all the informative replies.
