The Warm Audio EQP-WA Tube Equalizer is a re-creation of the most renown tube Equalizer in studio history, the Pultec EQP-1A. Not only does the look and feel of the EQP-WA match the classic Pultec units, but the sonic quality has been carefully considered by using top-end components such as CineMag transformers and premium tubes.

This fully discrete Tube EQ can pull euphoric sonics from any track and bring a brilliance and luster to mixes that's nearly impossible to achieve inside-the-box. We are proud to have once again redefined the industry standard by bringing a fully professional-grade equalizer to the market at a price that's just as remarkable as the unit.

Pultec Style Tube Equalizer - Made Affordable.
Warm Audio's goal was to make a equalizer affordable for the first time, without compromising the quality and design parameters that make this type of equalizer so desirable.

Premium Components in every Warm Audio product.
The Warm Audio EQP-WA Tube Equalizer is a high-voltage tube equalizer, utilzing CineMag USA Transformers and two premium vacuum tubes by Tung-Sol.

A Two Tube Operation.
The Warm Audio EQP-WA Tube Equalizer operates on two tubes: one 12AX7 and one 12AU7. We proudly use Tung-Sol brand tubes in this product for their sonic richness and 'open' sound. These 2 tubes are socketed for easy swapping and replacement.

    I like outboard gear. But I only want to cross my converters if the gear will make it worth it. This EQ is definitely worth it. Now I even use it in my tracking signal chain with the EQ flat.

What We Think

The Warm Audio EQP-WA is a very warm (no pun intended) and musical sounding tube EQ. It's one of our favorite pieces from Warm Audio – we currently have one racked in our demo studio! You can get some interesting EQ curves with the simultaneous boost and cut functionality of pultec style EQ’s. My favorite trick with the EQP-WA is to give a little boostypoo and cut the same low frequency (for me, typically 30 Hz) on electric guitars. This adds a nice weight to my rhythm guitars that I have trouble achieving with other tools. I love to boost around 8k on electric guitars with this EQ as it’s such a smooth sounding boost. I also love the way it can fatten and/or brighten a lead vocal. A pair of these makes for a great sounding master bus EQ! Get a pair for yourself and try them on everything; you won't be disappointed!
