Teac EQA-5 10 Band /Channel Stereo Graphic Equalizer Excellent Condition
The TEAC EQA-10 Graphic Equalizer was probably the first affordable ($100) full featured, 10 band equalizer, making it fairly popular in the early 1980s. This was at a time when LEDs were preferred over meters, giving this unit a great visual appeal. I guess the LEDs are somewhat legitimate for monitoring the output levels! EQ units were thought to be essential for recording "hot" cassette mix tapes (more base/high end), minimizing vinyl damage in recordings for live listening, and for tone control, generally making up for your speakers that left your ears desiring what you could not afford. Like my speakers his unit was one you could afford, but at the price offered, packed a lot of punch and perhaps slightly reduced quality feel than a typical top of the line Teac product. This one is in excellent shape overall.
