Because of these problems, the RE-EQUALIZER was designed. It is used after the RIAA phono stage, and connects to the system just like a comm on graphic equalizer. It will then compensate any signal source for proper equalization.

REDUCER must always precede the RE-EQUALIZER. If tape recording is not used, connect the RE- EQUALIZER in the tape monitor path. If tape recording is desired, connect the RE-EQUALIZER in the tape monitor path(Fig. 1) and use a "Y" connector to feed its (or associated equipment's) output to an unused "Au x"...
Toscanini discs. HINTS ON USE: One advantage of the RE-EQUALIZER is the ability to not only use it on phono records, but on tape recordings of vintage records made with RIAA equalized preamps. Be careful not to trust all transcription and record labels.
13.7 db down at 10 KHz. On these types of records, with let's say a 7.5 KHz scratch filter and the RE-EQUALIZER set to F LA T, you will be gaining in highs be twee n 2.2 KH z and 7.5 K hz.
