My first though when I read the word "flat" is that you're not using any EQ.

"Flat" can be bad or good depending on your definition of the word in this circumstance.

Do you mean natural or transparent? Flat is a mixed bag. That could mean not exciting to some.

No, I presenly have a vintage 7 band Technics stereo EQ. Personally, I have found when you have more than about 7 bands per channel you drive youself crazy trying to find a setting you like in a home enviourment for all program sources.

I use '"flat" in the classic, correct way..... the way it's supposed to be used.... to denote accurate freq response.
People can can change the meaning of "flat" in ther own minds due to ingnorance on the subject but the correct, classic meaning remains.
If something sounds natural and transparent, it means the freq response is realitively flat.


Yes, I'm aware that any setting can change with volume.
