Other Equipment
Another approach to obtaining the right phonograph record equalization settings for transferring vintage recordings to digital media is to use the Chronologic Equalizer in the Souvenir Vintage Sound Processor – MK-2 made by K-A-B Electronics.
- Equalizer Setting
- AC: Acoustic recordings
- AE: Early electric recordings; Victor (some 1925), Columbia (1925), and most European to 1955
- E3: Recordings with a 300 Hz turnover; Columbia (1925-1938), and FRR to 1955
- E5: Recordings with a 500 Hz turnover; Victor (most 1925-1952)
- E7: Recordings with a 700 Hz turnover (some NBC Orthacoustic transcriptions)
- CO: Columbia 78 curve (1938 to 1955)
- TR: Transcriptions (NAB)
- MO: RIAA equalization

Famous quotes containing the word equipment:
“Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter.”
—Betty Rollin (b. 1936)
“Why not draft executive and management brains to prepare and produce the equipment the $21-a-month draftee must use and forget this dollar-a-year tommyrot? Would we send an army into the field under a dollar-a-year General who had to be home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays?”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
