Trust Schiit Loki

Some time ago I bought a Schiit Loki equalizer with the idea of improving the sound of poor recordings.
However, I have hardly ever used it, thinking, surely, the best sound must be the in the original signal.  And that an equalizer, no matter how good the reviews are, surely is going to corrupt the SQ.
I’ve only just now given up this purist delusion, and realize I can really enjoy the benefits of “fixing” the flaws inherent in some recordings.
It really is an amazing device.

@newbee , dont know.
My issue is that I'm using very good IC's; Siltech and Silent Source, and would hate to insert a weak link between them that changes their presentation.
I suppose a low priced LPS like a Teradak is better than a wall-wart.

I'm thinking about adding a Loki to my all tube system. Music sounds wonderful except for some classical digital with the "edge" or harshness in the highs. Specifically close mic'd brass sections.

Has anybody tried using a linear power supply with the Loki? I'd hate to lose imaging or dynamics when using a wall-wart for power.
