This is from my goody box. I would love to keep it, because its real neat, but honestly will probably never use it again.

AKAI Computer Graphic Equalizer - Model EA-A7 (1984) -SALE PENDING - AMULFORD

7-Bands
Defeat
Soft Touch Controls
Memory (3 Assignments)
Individual Left/Right Adjustments
Inputs (2 Tape Monitors, 1 Line/Source)
Adjustments (63Hz/160Hz/400Hz/1K/2.5K/6.3K/16K)

The unit has a couple scratches on the top plate, and a rub or two around the edge of the front faceplate. Overall it is in excellent condition, and 100% functional.

$30/ Shipped (CONUS)
CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Doro,

    Does it offer any signal gain? Do you have a manual for it?

    Anthony - I used to have the manual, and I will continue to look for it. Gain? I would say it does not provide any gain, but I am not 100%. You would think that if it alters the output signal, that it would add a small amount of gain....but again, unsure.

    If you are interested, I can ship it to you. Check it out....and if you like it, buy it...if not, just ship it back.

    I contacted Rick at www.stereomanuals.com , and asked about a manual....but it's a long shot. It's fairly straightforward, the only thing you would need it for is the actual specifications.

    Yes Doro, I am interested. My 2nd zone has no tonal control, and I like a little more bass than just flat.

    If you could, I would like to check it out.

    Thanks Brutha,
    Anthony

    Anthony - No problem, I will get it shipped this week, probably on Wednesday.

    I talked to Rick, and he thinks he may have a manual for this unit. Let me work out the details, and if it's works out, I will get in touch with you. He will probably charge a couple bucks, but it will be worth it. Sorry I don't have it the original anymore.

    Doro,

    The equalizer arrived today. It's in excellent shape. I'm gonna hook it up after I do the cable shootout this weekend.

    I like the digital looking display. Lots of "cool" factor.

    How do you like that, the guy will let me try it to see if I like it first. You won't find that ANYWHERE but here. I really dig this forum.

    Thank you Doro.

    I am happy that it arrived safely. Yea, it is in great shape, and its old...sometimes, those just don't go together. Wait until you hook it up and use the spectrum analyzer....it's REAL cool. I always liked bouncing lights. :)

    Doro,

    Hooked up the equalizer last night. Cool light show. It really brings out the 2B's. Definitely a keeper.

    Omly problem is now I GOTTA have some Signal Cables to feed it and the amp. (Bastads :D )

    Thank You My Brutha!

    Anthony;)
