reccomend an affordable EQ

Im not too good with audio stuff but, Im going to amplify my speakers some time and want to also add a half din EQ. I looked around and found a pioneer for about $210 which seems to have what I want which is mainly a subwoofer volume control. does anyone know of another EQ thats more inexpensive and still have sub control and 9 band eq?

Kenwoods make some decent EQ's. They have a 1/4 din which is only about 5 bands (I think) which works amazingly. They also make a full din size with a spectrum analyzer display. If your looking for sub control, your best bet is to get an electronic crossover. You have better flexibility here!

If you want to get an eq thats worth it you gotta go 30 bands and then it don't matter they all cost about a grand.
