Re: Eventides (Was: Re: Lovetone stuff)



Hi Richard,
is Eclipse sounding better than 7000 ?
By my experience it seems to sound as it had a sort of "midrange boost" 
that is making guitar players more happy with it than with the flat 
response of the Orville.
I'd like to know your point of view.
Thanks,
Luca
