    What are your clip EQ settings?

    Quote: Originally Posted by Punnisher The clip EQ would be fine if the sound was the same when the EQ is off and when the EQ is in custom mode. You wouldn't have to start at +4 as a reference point. I wonder why they did it this way. Hey, sorry I'm late to the thread. I'm just...
