Also, got a brand new AZEQ6 for $2100, while new G11 currently costs over $5500...


P.S. I have noticed you also have HEQ5...honestly, I liked my HEQ5 but my AZEQ6 tracks MUCH smoother...
Thanks for the reply 😀
Yes the price difference is very high between the 2 , and like you the ability to just plug in Eqmod and keep going is tempting......me to the AZEQ6. Hummmm......is the G11 that much better I wonder.
