Loki vs new streamer and new DAC.

I have ATC SCM 40 speakers in a reflective, bright room, so I’ve been using a Loki to modulate and adjust the sound. Now I have new equipment and I unhooked the Loki, but I don’t have good enough ears to be able to tell if I should still be using it. I tried to get a streamer and a DAC that were a little warm. I got a SIM audio moon mind and a Denafrips Pontus2. Does anyone have a point of view that might be helpful to me here, besides simple experimentation, which I’ve tried.
