Is it just me, or does EQThree make audio sound more 'brittle'/tainted in some way, even on a completely flat setting?

Is this a 'processor efficient' trade off? Cause EQFour is perfectly transparent.

you are correct.

The EQ3 was not designed to be perfectly flat, but to allow for killing frequencies completely. It is not exactly a linear tool, but more an EQ with character.
If you dislike the coloration, use the EQ4. But EQ4 will not allow you to get 48 dB/octave and the ability to set the volume of a band to zero.
