Great thread!
My vote goes for Filtek MK3's: 3 band, 12 position overlapping freq. with wide/narrow Q, each band w. bypass switch, hi and lo pass filters, and good transformers - hard to find item (tho I hear not so in Europe...
), but at around 400 bucks, I think they're sleepers. IME, they sound awesome on damn near everything.
