Now in Your Rack.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The records coming out of Motown's Hitsville USA studio in the 1960s didn't just sound good — they sounded louder, punchier, and more commanding than anything else on the radio. A big part of that was the proprietary gear designed and built in-house by chief engineer Mike McLean, including the 7-band passive EQ that the MotorCity EQualizer faithfully recreates down to the last component.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      This isn't a tribute or a modern interpretation — Heritage Audio had every discontinued part custom-manufactured from scratch using 100% period-correct materials, values, and tolerances. What you're getting is the actual circuit, hand-wired, in a rugged 2U chassis with a 10-gauge hand-brushed aluminum faceplate and custom-molded Bakelite knobs.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      As an authorized dealer, Pro Audio Reserve ensures your MotorCity EQualizer is a genuine Heritage Audio product backed by full manufacturer warranty and support.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- Section 2 --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"par-section reverse\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"par-image\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/4031\/9643\/files\/Heritage_Audio_MotorCity_EQualizer_rear_view_1.png?v=1771996788\" alt=\"Heritage Audio MotorCity EQualizer rackmount studio equalizer\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"par-text\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eSeven Bands.

Each band uses a heavy-duty stepped rotary switch with 1dB increments up to ±8dB — enough to make dramatic tonal moves while keeping everything sounding natural, open, and effortlessly loud.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The passive EQ circuit imparts that characteristic sense of weight and authority that engineers have been chasing for decades. Run it on individual tracks, use a stereo pair across your mix bus, or deploy it for mastering — source material takes on a presence and punch that's immediately recognizable to anyone who grew up listening to those iconic 45s.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- Section 3 --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"par-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"par-image\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/4031\/9643\/files\/Heritage_Audio_MotorCity_EQualizer_right_view_1.png?v=1771996788\" alt=\"Heritage Audio MotorCity EQualizer rear panel XLR I\/O\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"par-text\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eBuilt Like the Era It Came From\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The MotorCity EQualizer is a serious piece of kit — 15 lbs of mil-spec construction that feels as substantial as it sounds.
