The Pope Audio BAX 2020 "Beast" 500-Series Equalizer takes the plaform of the standard BAX2020 and builds a tonal beast by adding an Avedis 1122 Discrete Op Amp, not only on the input, but also at the output stage, feeding an output transformer!
The Pope Audio BAX 2020 "Beast" 500-Series Equalizer is where hotrodding the simple things is best. There are few signal processors more straightforward than a Baxandall EQ. Developed in the early 1950s by pioneering audio/electronics engineer Peter Baxandall, a "Bax" EQ exhibits a gently rising (or falling) curve for a more natural sound with lower phase distortion compared to that of a traditional shelving EQ. By including the combination of an Avedis 1122 Discrete Op-Amp (DOA) on the input, alongside another 1122 DOA feeding the output transformer, the BAX2020 Beast is capable of producing desirable harmonic saturation when driven at the input stage. The result is a beautifully musical EQ that can be used in any number of ways, from adding smooth top-end sparkle to mixes, introducing subtle analogue “drive” on bass-heavy sources or simply cleaning up unwanted low-end mud on stems.
