no!! not confused at all i do find cds a little ""toppy" myself (what i like to call the"Elton John Effect") and i do play around a little with the higher frequencies but i am not to fussy about it and usually it is just set and forget, my brother on the other hand is partly deaf and it is interesting to see him reach for the equalizer to lift up the mid-high range!! so yes i do agree they are a handy adjunct to the sound system for many reasons

With CD's you don't have a breakdown of the source material. An equalized is just needed to soundscape your stereo system. Remember, Each disc was recorded differently, bass, midrange and treble, are never then same on every album, unless it was produced by Roy Thomas Baker, of course.

So, Yes, your Equalizer is a necessary component. Some stereo's come with preset equalizers, so you just push a button or you can set your own. 

 

Did I just confuse you?

on a more seriuos note i used to use graphic equalizers quite a bit for old tapes etc but with recording technology improving and the longevity of cds i find myself using them less do you think equalizers are necessary or not?
