 Description 
All EQs are set as similar as I could make them, given their different features and layouts. Here's the basic settings:
HP @ 80Hz, LF Shelf @ 220Hz +3dB, MF @ 1.2kHz +2dB, HF Shelf @ 10kHz +3dB.

Signal tracked with an ADK A51 TC mic through a Sebatron Thorax preamp (slight EQ and compression going in), converted with an Apogee Duet and tracked into Logic 8 at 48/24.

I've been reading for weeks to find the "best" EQ plugin that gives that "analog" sound. I know now which one I love, and it's apparent to me, but perhaps every ear is different. What do you think?

At first listen my favorite was the Neve 1073. It just seemed to be the smoothest. I preferred all the UA stuff in general.
