Hi.

Currently, I don't have a home amp/receiver with SP/DIF input, but I do plan on getting one soon (to finally make use of DTS sound of my DVDs). The reason why I would like to use the EQ of the empeg is twofold:

1. I would like to use it for certain albums that were poorly mastered and need some twisted EQ settings to compensate for that.
2. I have a VCR that is pretty good (well, extremely good, if you ask me). The only problem about that VCR is its stereo output. That output is distorted to an annoying degree (only the RCA output though, the EURO-AV/SCART output is 100% ok) , so I would like to fix that using the empeg's EQ, too.
   

So that is my reasoning for keeping the EQ.

cu,
sven
