fukuda Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Hi, you all.Twenty years ago (or so) I remember using a kind of external equalizer, made by Sony, which was plugged between the walkman (a mini-cassette model) and the earphones or loudspeakers.This was a kind of black metallic box, the size of the walkman, with plenty of sliders on it to adjust the frequencies... and increase the output power.Does anyone know if this kind of stuff still exists, who makes it and where to find it ?I think this could improve the performances of my RH-910 without having to set the internal equalizer.Many thanks in advance for your responses.

jonny mac Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) Why don't you want to use the RH910's equalizer?There's this, but it's only three-band.http://www.pjbox.co.uk/Koss-EQ50.htm Edited February 23, 2006 by jonny mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm wrong This external equalizer permitted to boost the output volume of the walkman, volume which seems to be regulated on the devices sold here in France.Three-band in a bit short as you say. Six would be a good solution. The equalizer I remember of had at last six bands.I tried to find this kind of stuff through a research on Google and Ebay but it seems to be completely discontinued Regards.

jonny mac Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Ahhh, you hadn't done the hack already? Sorry, it's the first thing I do when I buy a new unit so I have an assumption that everyone does it first chance they get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
