eq is a processor no? So it would be #2!! to process signals BEFORE amplifier amplifies it

i would have guessed 1 because that way you can correct any bad signals the amp creates. but klown you are taller than me, so you're probably right.

wait yeah you are. my guess is its a preamp out on the deck to the eq, key word being pre lol

processing should be done before the amplifier.


is there even a processor out there that you allow for it to be placed after an amp?
usually they have a variety of inputs and RCA outs to go to the amp. ...no wire out for speakers.

I want to see an example of a post-amplifier multiband eq (and not some BS tone controls out of a 70s home tower ).
