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.
@ditusa that's a lot of knobs to adjust:-) That's not a criticism. Too many for me as a newbie though!Concerning noisy opamps - I can only speak from my limited experience. My API is dead silent.Nary a click or hiss.There's no issue having it stacked on my dac or preamp either. I know that Schiit admits to experiencing noise issues with the Lokius and recommends to keep it isolated from other components. |
@jtcf , I am so happy the API has worked out so well for you. Furthermore, am happy for the others who have dared to try pro analog EQ or MQ112, branching out from the Schiit products, and being richly rewarded! This has been an illuminating forum for many. I am so glad. 😊🎶 |
So is Audiogon's search good for ANYTHING?? I really like this thread, purely about equalizers, but if I search discussions for "equalizer" it doesn't find it.... at all! Even if I type all the words of the exact title "Equalizer in a HiFi system" it does not find it. Oops... you see my tiny mistake? I missed just ONE tiny space in the title and it did not find this thread. This is the exact opposite of computers helping us! |
@mirolab , One more trick you can do, if you know a few words in a thread's heading. Go to google and type like this: "equaliser in a hifi system" site:audiogon.com I purposely made the spelling mistake in "equalizer". But Google got me THIS thread as the FIRST hit. That last part is very important. "site:" followed by the specific site you want to search. You might be aware of this, but I thought this might help others. |
