I've got some Auratone 5Cs, but they're very much lacking in bass. The solution, apparently, is to boost around 90Hz by ~13dB. The trouble is, I only want to do that on the speaker output - I use headphones too, so I only want to boost the output on the speaker device.
This is also my daily-driver machine, so an in-DAW solution doesn't do the job, and I don't want to be constantly switching the EQ on and off.
The obvious solution, to my mind, is to put a hardware EQ between the interface outputs and the amp - so I'm after a stereo parametric EQ capable of up to 13-14dB boost on a line-level signal, in a reasonable form factor (don't have room for rack units without some serious rearrangement), at a reasonable price (say, sub-£200).
Does such a thing exist?

However...do you know if they take line level signals OK?

I am, however, going to set the new speakers up and experiment with EQ in Reaper to verify that +13dB @ ~90Hz does the job.
To answer your question though, a baxendall style or even tilt EQ might give good results? You can always try it with a simple EQ plugin to make sure it gives the desired result before spending any money.
