Matrix NL212 EQ?
I'm a new Matrix GT1000FX/NL212 owner. Although I've only put an hour of playing time on the new cab, I notice a high frequency fizz when I use a high gain amp or a drive pedal with gain. Low gain amps and clean patches sound great. Global cab sims are off, gain staging isn't clipping, power amp is in stereo or mono mode (not bridged or parallel), global EQ flat.
I've read that the freq response of this cab extends wider than a typical guitar cab, so I can do some global EQ tweaks to rein the high frequencies in. I've also read accounts on this forum that the high frequencies "warm up" when the speakers get broken in over time. I'd love to know if other NL212 owners experienced this same gain fizz and if so, what (if any) EQ tweaks they made. I just want it to sound great, regardless of the gain of the amp or drive.
Thanks!
