And that is completely at odds with following the purist approach you were championing earlier. End of.

No it isn't and I've explained why. Okay if the equalizer is crap and introduces loads of distortion then I agree but that depends on the equalizer. If they were all as distorted as you say how bad would studio recordings be since they will go through a shitload of them in there?
Agree with Barry it would be a last resort, why add anything that you don't need to?
