I'm looking for a subwoofer EQ and haven't had any luck just searching online.

I'm wanting as many channels as on one between 15hz and maybe up to 130hz, or at least as close as i can get to 130hz.

I'm wanting to be able to determine how much power gets sent to the sub at different frequencies and the more I can control the better. I use to have a velodyne SMS but sold it and it really would be overkill for what I'm wanting it for anyway.

I'm going to need 3 of them and use them inline with bass transducers and need to be able to regulate different frequencies to adjust how strong the rumbles are. I would like to be able to increase power at higher frequncies and lower my lower ones. But in some cases do the opposite of that.

Any ideas or maybe some model # would be great. I'm wanting to get these as cheap as I can.

    I have one of the Behringer units but have never used it. If you wanted to give it a try, I could let it go cheap. Send me a pm if you are interested.

    OP, with the BFD you would have something like 24 channels you could EQ. Sounds like you will need 3 so you could set up the other 21 for different movies or house curves.

    Velodyne SMS-1 is probably the cheapest of the bunch. Antimode is next cheapest and SVS AS-EQ1 is all-out solution, which can separately equalize two subs.

    BFD is pretty cheap, less than $99 last time I looked and about $30 on ebay. It will require you to use your brain and read the manual.
