Details
Controls: Low freq boost (4 freqs: 20/30/60/100 Hz, 0 to +14 dB) and attenuation (0 to -18 dB); High freq boost (10 freqs 1-16 kHz, variable Q, 0 to +18 dB) and attenuation (3 freqs, 0 to -18 dB)
I/O: Balanced XLR in/out, transformer-coupled and fully floating
Notable use: Successor to the original PE1A, first shipped 1985; classic Pultec-derived program EQ
Notes: FLAG: price basis uncertain - $2,899 appears across retailer listings but Thomann shows ~$2,777; treat as approximate street price, not a confirmed manufacturer MSRP. Do not confuse with the separate, now-DISCONTINUED 'EQ 1A' parametric tube EQ (1995, superseded by EQ 1AM); EQ 1A is not part of the current lineup.
