a hem.
I tried both after reading a bunch of threads on TB, and of course Mr. Bongomania's reviews. Although I wasn't able to check each one side by side, to me (like some other posters) that the EBS evens out the levels quite well, and is super clear, and leaves your attack in place.
The Demeter has more of an overall squish, rounding out the top and bottom and gives you, to my ears, a real punch to your notes. Which is why I got it, and why I likes it. |

Full report on my page of course. |
