I still have those infamous "bright" recordings I've mentioned in the past; that would be a reason to have an equalizer, and I think it would be helpful in that regard, after reading that section of Paul Seydor's review for the first time. So there's actually a use for it. But, all things considered, that's not enough reason to go looking for trouble.
I do know that, if I were starting from scratch and in a preamp search now, I'd get the C52 (wallet permitting) and be completely happy with it. I also think that's what I'd get if the C2300 died or went away somehow (stolen, damaged beyond repair, etc.). I hope that doesn't happen, but I know where I'll look first if it does.
