Default go-to EQ: Fabfilter Pro Q2 or DMG Equilibrium?

... for dialogue? I like the sound of both of them, but I'm looking for opinions of heavy users regarding automation, flexibility, stability and cpu usage in large sessions.

+1 for Fabfilter; very refined GUI, excellent sonics, lots of nice little features (grab spectrum, match, etc).

Absolutely loving FF2 here.

Grab spectrum is a game changer for removing static tones from dialogue.

With that and RX4's ambience match, its been a top month for Post featured plugins.

I tried them both and didn't have the patience to get into DMG. Just sooooo many options. I tend to get overwhelmed by that when i'm very busy with work and though it may be incredible and worth it, it seems you need some time to get your head around it. FF2 is simple, gorgeously designed and thought out and sounds good.
