Choosing an equalizer : Marantz EQ-580 or Hafler DH-160 ?

[liemjerry]

Hi all

 

I plan to buy an equalizer for connecting with my cassette decks, I have 2 options :

- Marantz EQ-580

- Hafler DH-160

but I have difficulties to chose, both have 10 channels per side and Marantz have spectrum analyzer display, Hafler have more good frequency response in specification, look robust, but no spectrum analyzer display, look old fashioned, but looks good

 

Please help me to decide

Thanks
