Built with Integrity. Built with Love. Built the AUDIOSCAPE way!

ICONIC AND IMMENSELY WEIGHTY, “ELECTRIC” EQUALIZATION
AudioScape EQP-A: Legendary, Vintage Tube Equalization
Our newest addition to the AudioScape lineup, the EQP-A is an uncompromising, authentically Made-in-USA recreation of the classic vintage tube equalizer known for imparting a uniquely electric, silky sheen and thundering, tight low end to countless recordings over the last half-century. And in true Audioscape fashion, an extraordinary amount of time, passion and obsessive attentional to detail was spent refining and perfecting our take on this legendary circuit to ensure every unit behaves and performs just like the original - all at a peerless price point within reach of engineers working at ANY level.

Painstaking Circuit Design & Carefully Selected, Period-Correct Components
With a unit as famed and beloved as this, it's no surprise that there are many "clones" and “replicas” on the market claiming to capture the magic and unquantifiable, vintage soul of the original. But it turns out there's much more to this “magic” than meets the eye - literally. Not only does the EQP-A include a full complement of NOS tubes - utilizing the oft excluded NOS 6x4 Rectifier Tube; an important aspect of the originals sound, custom-wound inductor, and high-end custom iron that matches the specifications and performance of the originals - including the critical interstage transformer omitted from most "clones" despite its crucial contributions both to performance and faithfully recreating the originals box tone - but, by necessity, we've actually “corrected” the circuit to more accurately reflect the behavior and sound of the vintage units, after finding the original schematic(s) contained errors that drastically affected performance at certain filter settings. The difference is remarkable, and it reinforces our belief that no amount of research, development, listening tests, or time is too much to invest into a product of this pedigree.

Electrifying, Larger-Than-Life Sonic Elegance
The EQP-A has been built from the ground up accurately and faithfully, with no component compromises and no gratuitous enhancements to completely and faithfully capture the shockingly vivid, detailed, and elegant character of this classic EQ. (We wouldn't put our name on it if it didn't!) We've invested an immense amount of time testing and refining this unit to produce the same jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring reaction engineers around the world have felt when using a vintage unit; every-time the circuit is engaged or a setting is changed. And we're confident you'll feel the same!

Our Philosophy - Recreating the Euphonic Sonics of a Bygone Era
Like every AudioScape product, the EQP-A was designed and built with one, of many-core principles in mind: SONIC TRUTH! We're proud to offer you a unit that we feel truly replicates the magic, mojo, and character of such a classic, time-tested EQ. We can't wait to hear what you have to say and hope you love it as much as we are proud of it!

Handcrafted in the USA - Legendary Circuits deserve Legendary Craftsmanship
