The Speck Electronics ASC-V 500-Series Equalizer is a professional single channel 4-band equalizer in a vertical module compatible with 500-Series rack frames.
It is simple...it is useful...and it delivers the high quality and specifications found in all Speck Electronics gear. This compact 4-band parametric equalizer has 12 controls for equalization adjustment that covers the audio spectrum from a low 25Hz all the way up to 25kHz. To enhance the classic EQ experience, the ASC-V offers both transformer-balanced and active-balanced outputs.
4 Sweepable Bands
- L Band - a low band that sweeps the low frequencies from 25Hz - 400Hz. This band offers a Peak/Shelf select switch.
- L/M Band - a switchable low and mid band. This fully parametric section can be switched between a low frequency band that sweeps from 40Hz - 800Hz, or a mid frequency band that sweeps 400Hz - 8kHz. This band has a variable bandwidth adjustment.
- M Band - a fully parametric mid band with a frequency sweep range from 400Hz to 10kHz.
- H Band - a high band that adjusts the high frequency from 2kHz all the way up to 25kHz. This band also offers a Peak/Shelf select switch.
The Rear Panel
In addition to the standard rack friendly edge connector, the ASC-V has a set of 1/4" TRS input/output jacks, and a power input connector. With these I/O connectors and the optional power module, you can ignore the PC edge connector and use the ASC-V as a stand alone EQ.
We even offer a mounting base that will hold a single EQ or a pair of the ASC-V's.
Connect the ASC-V to virtually any line level source; balanced, unbalanced, or mixer inserts. The Model ASC-V has high headroom that will handle balanced signals up to +28dBu.

Keeps getting more fun each time
May 1st 2018I'm sort of swapping between my Inward Connections 500 series Step Eq's (x2) and two Speck ASC-V eq's on my 500 Series rack. I must say the more I use the ASC-V's from Speck, the more I enjoy them. They are extremely surgical and tailor made for exact frequency settings as opposed to a more broad approach that you'd get with lets say a Pultec EQ. They are my go-to EQ's, I enjoy them more than Avedis E27's, Neve 551's, and a plethora of other 500 series EQ's. Get one - better yet grab a pair and don't look back.
