In Reply to: Probably a meaningless feature for me as well... posted by hifi heretic on January 3, 2013 at 06:05:54:
But the other features Mac embraces such as bass/treble/ balance controls, mono switch...
I prefer controlling the HF balance at the speaker to tame particularly bad recordings. Which fortunately is not often. Never had any use for a bass control. There are bass shy recordings to be sure, but you cannot restore what was never captured. Only thicken what is there.
As for the other features in the quote above, you'll find my ARC preamp has them, too.
Why does this bother you so?
You confuse bother(?) with humor. :)
If being the brunt of your derision helps you to feel better about yours
You have already forgotten my original observation. I was trying to reassure you that your fear:
Ever worried about over-driving my speakers (Paradigm Signature S8 v2) I like being able to refer to the meters to make sure that I'm well below the danger zone.
was undeserved given the presence of the limiter circuitry.
If you have any other systems where that remains a concern, you can address it rather inexpensively. I purchased and configured one for my last church. It seems the preacher's dynamic range exceeded the quality of the cassettes and MP3 recordings of his sermons. :)
