Back in the day (1970s) manufacturers never admitted to deficiencies in their equipment, and the audio publications were always telling us how good they were. The idea of flat response was discussed, but it was hard to achieve in anything but higher price ranges, and it wasn't always a goal in "real world" listening, i.e., most listeners wouldn't appreciate perfectly flat response with no tone controls. Equalizers were not created to make up for "deficiencies" in vintage equipment, but to fine-tune the sound according to a) what type of music you might be listening to, and b) to adjust for room acoustics, where these types of tone controls can help make up for ROOM DEFICIENCIES.
