Equaliser vs. Equalizer — What's the Difference?

Standard spelling of equalizer

A device for equalizing pressure or strain.

An electronic circuit which reduces frequency distortion.

A tone control system designed to compensate for frequency distortion in audio systems.

An equivalent counterbalancing weight.

(Slang) A deadly weapon, such as a firearm or switchblade.

Electronic equipment that reduces frequency distortion

One who makes equal; a balancer.

An equivalent counterbalancing weight

A device that balances various quantities.

(sports) A goal, run, point, etc. that equalizes the score.

An electronic audio device for altering the frequencies of sound recordings.

A device, such as a bar, for operating two brakes, especially a pair of hub brakes for an automobile, with equal force.

Any device for equalizing the pull of electromagnets.

A conductor of low resistance joining the armature ends of the series field coils of dynamos connected in parallel.

A sliding panel to preserve the lateral stability of an aeroplane.

(math) A set of arguments where two or more functions have equal values; the solution set of an equation.

(category theory) A morphism whose codomain is the domain of a parallel pair of morphisms and which forms part of the limit of that parallel pair. Equivalently, a morphism which equalizes a parallel pair of morphisms in a limiting way, which is to say that any other morphism which equalizes that parallel pair factors through this limiting morphism; and moreover such factorization is unique.

A weapon, usually a blackjack or gun.

One who, or that which, equalizes anything.

Same as Equalizing bar.

A device, as a bar, for operating two brakes, esp. a pair of hub brakes for an automobile, with equal force.

Any device for equalizing the pull of electromagnets; also, a conductor of low resistance joining the armature ends of the series field coils of dynamos connected in parallel.

A sliding panel to preserve the lateral stability of an aëroplane.

A device or circuit within a sound-reproducing system that reproduces the original frequency distribution of the sound before recording by compensating for inequialities in the frequency response of the system.

A gun.

Electronic equipment that reduces frequency distortion

An equivalent counterbalancing weight

A score that makes the match even
