You've missed a crucial point mentioned in post No. 3, that of needing to keep the cost down. Not everybody can be casually flippant about dropping loads of money without considering consequences.

An EQ6 is a fine bit of gear, but also a complex one too, which may be overwhelming if you are not expecting it. It is also a very heavy bit of gear. Everybody is doing the best they can in their own way. Our place is to guide them to the best choices regarding their circumstances. This includes money, where they live, expectations, experience, family situation. I have an EQ6, and it is my least favourite bit of gear. I have it only as it fills a niche in MY circumstances, and I'm debating whether it is worth keeping. I haven't used it in over six months. Can't see myself using it in the short term either, and then how many more times will I use it??? I have other much more modestly priced gear I use all the time. Expensive doesn't always mean best choice...

Alex.
