I'm thinking of upgrading my behringer graphics to something a bit nicer. Had in mind BSS 966's? Any suggestions welcome.

For ringing out monitors, speed of use is more important than precise control over frequency and bandwidth - so a graphic wins out over a parametric EQ. Trust me on this, I have done a lot of monitor engineering.

A used Klark DN360 or BSS FCS960 or (better still, but hard to find) XTA GQ600 would be my choice.

The BSS 960 as opposed to the 966?

You can ring out monitors faster and more accurately with a parametric.
