Does Every Track Sound Great on Your System?

Every song should sound as good as the quality of the recording allows. Meaning a poorly recorded album will sound as good as it can but it will never equal the sound of a high quality recorded one. To try to achieve similar results from poorly and well recorded albums would be like chasing the dragon.

And if you need to improve well recorded albums, you need to improve your listening room and system first.

No remote on the Charter Oak makes it an impossibility for my setup. Hence the Loki Max.

Agreed, in worst case scenarios, I use my Schiit loki max and it does a great job on poorly recorded albums.

You made my point real well. No remote on a EQ unit is worthless in my listening room setup. Since the ones who are  pushing the Charter Oak don't post their systems, I imagine they must be sitting at a desk by their EQ unit doing their listening. Otherwise it would be a lot of getting up and down to get it just right. No thanks. No remote, no EQ in my case. Thanks for the Loki Max. No wonder it has been out of stock. Great invention, remote EQ!

I really appreciate all the info you have provided and am happy you are so pleased with this in your system. Looking at their website, it is undeniable that the advantages of this unit are multiple over others. But, as quoted in their website, this is first and foremost intended for studios. In a dedicated listening room such as mine, it would simply be overkill as only my speakers cost more than it. And I use my EQ probably much less than 5% of the time. That's why the Loki Max in my case makes much more sense. But good for you!

Ditto, I also said all I have to say because unlike some, I don't like to bad mouth other folks' equipment over mine. Over and out.
