I have a Dr Z 1x12 convertible cab with the Vintage 30 and in looking at the response curve for the speaker and notice the dip about 1.4 kHz and am wondering which eq (bass,mid treble) on my Z-Lux would boost it the most? Part of my problem is I am not sure for example what frequencies the mid control will change the most, bass, treble?. Same type of question for the peak starting at about 2 kHz to 4kHz, is this mid or treble? Any help with this will be greatly appreciated!

2k to 4k will be controlled by the Treble. Since the controls are interactive, where the Mid control is centered will be affected by the other controls. So 1.4K will be a combination of the Mid and Treble. You might need to add a parametric EQ if you want exact control. This will explain what I mean: www.duncanamps.com/tsc/

Make sure you use your ears to hear what you want. And, that's coming from a guy who loves to look at and interpret spectrum curves. Trust your ears. (I'm trying to learn to trust mine.)

That is exactly what I was looking for Thanks! I do like to look at spec sheets but I am not sure that my ear is good enough to hear the differences in the frequency response.

Don't look at a graph...use your ears.
Put another way: Look at the response graph of the v30...then look at the response curve another speaker. Will you be able to tell the differences by looking at a graph? No, you won't.....use your ears.
You 'might' be able to tell some differences in the different graphs, but will you really know if you like one speaker over another? "Based on the graph, this speaker will have a little more bass." But will you like that or not? Ya gotta use your ears.

... I am not sure that my ear is good enough to hear the differences in the frequency response. I'm basically the same way. However, at the ripe old age of 58, I'm realizing even if my ears aren't good enough, they're still better than my eyes for sound (even though I love looking at the spec curves and such). And, maybe I'm getting a little confidence in these old ears.
