“The spatial representation of the music becomes more tangible and natural. The more realistic, more concrete representation of the virtual stage seems to me to be the key point of the AUVA EQ.”

“The improvements in sound include, on the one hand, the slightly higher resolution in the mid and especially the high frequency band, and, on the other hand – and this is the most important thing – the spatial representation of the music becomes more tangible and natural. The more realistic, more concrete representation of the virtual stage seems to me to be the key point of the Auva EQ. The precision and plasticity of the representation of individual sounds increases and the stage space becomes larger overall: the Auva EQ simply creates more space on the stage for a clean front-back staggering of the musical actors. In fact, they move further back and at the same time a little step forward – the stage therefore gains in depth, not so much in width.

I can’t see any side effects, in the worst case it’s useless because your component is resistant to resonance dissipation and decoupling efforts. It can happen, of course. But in this case you can simply send the Auva EQ back, the 30-day money-back guarantee is aggressively advertised by the British. But I suspect that this will remain the exception, because even with high-quality components there is often still untapped potential when it comes to setup. Just try it out. In any case, I kept three Auva EQ sets straight away.”
