Equalizer in a Hi Fi system


Just curious to hear everyone’s opinions on using an equalizer in a high end hi fi system. Was at work tonight and killing time and came across a Schitt Loki max $1500 Equalizer with some very good reviews. What are some of the pros / Benefits and cons in using one. Just curious. BTW. I’m talking about a top of the line. Hi end equalizer. Mostly to calm some high frequencies and some bad recordings.

@jtcf Since the API is a pro piece it is a fully balanced design and will support very long cable runs with very little to no signal degradation, you could place the unit within easy reach of your listening position so you do not have to get up to make adjustments.

@jtcf I have my preamp in front of my listening position under the television. My control units sit on an end table on the left side of my sofa (listening and watching position) I run my cables along the back and side walls. No real intrusion into the room. Your API unit, I would think should be able to handle cable runs of up to a 100' or more without issue. assuming that what ever is feeding it is also following a   fully balanced AES48 protocol.
