for studio work, i'd advise against using graphic eqs. if you look at
the actual results (rather than the nice "graph" of your sliders),
you'll break a sweat :)

i find fons' FIL plugin (with the nice graphical lv2 ui written by
nedko, google for lv2fil, or your distro might already have it) solves
most issues. the only other things i use in addition to that are steep
low and highpass filters, sometimes.

no other issues. i found that a 4pin connector is usually a tighter fit
and seems more trustworthy to me than its big brother...
