Yeah, but I don't believe freq response graphs from ANY manufacturer anyway :-) The thing with the 1006 is that i can't seem to tame the peak to my taste with EQ. It still sounds a bit harsh even with the treble heavily rolled off. Dunno what accounts for that. Might be partly my mackie preamps which are not exactly the gentlest-sounding things around :-) -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com
