No audio pro would attempt to set up a sound system in a venue without using EQ. Rooms are different and getting decent response in any room usually requires a bit of EQ. I use the DSP in Roon and a pro audio 32 band equalizer for other sources that costs far less than that Loki and has more control. The idea of opamps sounding bad is ludicrous. The recordings you listen to went through dozens if not hundreds of them unless you are listening to nothing but 50+ year old vinyl.
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.
