This looks like an interesting kit from the good Doc B.

Probably at least based on this by Paul Joppa.

Hi all Audio Circle members.
I was wondering if any of you have any experience with the new The Fix from Bottlehead. It's supposed to fix some problems with full range OB set up. At 75 USD it's not too expensive if if fix problem of course.
Waiting for comments.

Looks like a handy device! Do note that "the load should be no less than 100K" (that would include any sub amps connected in parallel).

I use a Behringer DEQ2496 with modded DAC to replace high level baffle step with digital EQ.  These units are notorious for having tons of features, spotty build quality, and being extremely hard to figure out all those features.  With the help of the microphone Behringer offers with the piece and you-tube you can achieve better/verified in-room results (highly recommend having the 'right' room plus any treatments first).

Of course nowadays with digital sourcing you can replace EQ (or The Fix) with software (and mike of course).
