You guys seen this EQ yet? This thing is a beast.
https://www.threebodytech.com/en/products/kirchhoffeq
It seems just as capable in most ways, and even has some other unique options and features that Fabfilter doesnt have. I also prefer the visual contrast in this UI, as well as how smooth the animations are. I think its a bit more CPU intensive, but man this thing is cleaaannn. I have Fabfilter already but I still bought this because I enjoy working in this EQ more.
But if you don't have Fabfilter Pro Q3 yet, this is certainly a contender.
Kirchhoff-EQ - Legit Fabfilter alternative

Thank You for this post.
This is one of the posts that had me demo the the Kirchhoff EQ, after already demoing the Legendary Pro Q3, and the Infinity EQ
I actually chose the Infinity EQ over the Fabfilter Pro Q3, simply because of its elegant workflow.
Then I came across all of these ravings about the new Kirchhoff EQ, demoed it, and got Hooked !
Yes. I Love working with the Kirchhoff EQ , as well !
. . . and as far as the CPU . . . It's actually Shockingly Efficient for what it does !
The Kirchhoff boasts "Extreme CPU Optimization", and they are not joking around.
I find myself zooming around, setting curves, customizing each band shape, choosing which legendary eq sound model I want for each band . . . deciding which band should have dynamics, whether I should employ Side Chain parallel compression, with or without "Onset" (look ahead), and whether I should also side chain a "Relative" parallel dynamic . . . again . . . All on Each Individual Band !
This is easily the fastest, most complete, and versatile EQ that I have ever encountered.
. . . Oh, and you mentioned Clean . . . ! . . .

I took a high shelf filter at 20khz and Slammed it up to 30 dB . . . And it Sounded Amazing !
I also agree that this is a clear alternative to the Legendary Pro Q3 . . . In fact, the Kirchhoff EQ will definitely become Legendary in its own right.
Because with the Kirchhoff EQ . . . This IS like Rocket Science . . . !

Oh, and I still Love my Infinity EQ, my Eiosis Air Premium, and may even eventually pick up a Pro Q3, one day, for it's own special mojo . . .
Yet with the Kirchhoff EQ . . . well it reminds me of a great of Samplitude Pro X review in SOS (Sound On Sound) . . . " With Samplitude Pro X, you may sometimes feels overwhelmed, but you will never feel outgunned."
I feel similarly towards the Kirchhoff EQ . . . The more I work with them, the more I learn, and the better my results become. Yet, they are both still very accessible from Jump . . . They both are just Very Deep Programs, that cover an incredible amount of territory.
Happy Mixing !

First post Beta tester? How much are they paying you? 
Honestly though, this EQ looks great on paper, I haven't tried it yet but it would take an awful lot to pull me away from CraveEQ as my goto pristine clean parametric.
