| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I know many have tried this. I myself have not. Generally hear mixed to favorable through the grapevine. Not having heard the MQ112 either, I’d bet good money the MQ112 sounds alot more musical and natural than the RME EQ suite | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “As for your assessment of Skyline vs. PEQ1... I very much agree about the superior flexibility of the PEQ1's design... I just wish my unit had sounded better” based on your earlier description of your PEQ-1 experience, I am fairly sure you got a... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “I have a very fragile ego. I'm going to go cry in a glass of Tequila.” 😂 hilarious, Mike | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Thanks @wolf_garcia I appreciate the words. I may have touch of fragile ego. It’s possible. But I am passionate about listening and love to share my thoughts, for what they’re worth, about EQ in high end home audio. And yes, I know I talk too mu... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “…the excellently designed Max...a great item that's I've used for far more than 20 minutes (a few months actually)” To this other snide comment from @wolf_garcia , I’ve got ONE DECADE of familiarity with the CO PEQ-1, and nothing I’ve heard soun... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I’ve plugged back in the CO and listening to Moving Pictures again. Now I’m totally engaged and toes a tappin’ ! CO beats Skyline at more significant V shape sound signature for sure. I cannot live without my CO. I love this unit. It’s such a sha... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I don’t hear any audible hiss at all when listening to music at normal AND loud levels on ANY of the gear we’ve discussed. Good chain through and through and is a non issue. Cannot however speak to Lokius or other non Loki Max Schiit products. Of ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system It basically comes down to remote vs better V or U shaped sound signature versatility | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Not considering remote, Skyline is just as easy to use, sounds completely transparent, and honestly gives a more hi fi take on bass and treble with more flexibility there. I’d say with 2 db cuts here and there and not much boost elsewhere the two ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Agreed, but there is not a single thing the Max does BETTER. except for the remote, which can be huge for some | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Ok…impressions of Skyline vs Charter Oak in my HP chain, which is X Sabre 3 balanced streamer/ dac > EQ > Headamp GSX Mini > balanced out to Hifiman HE1000SE. The Skyline sounds great. The mids are resolute and fully saturated and acc... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system @mirolab , can you explain why my custom grounded Cardas XLR to RCA cables work for CO, Millennia, and Avalon (all strictly pro +4dbu balanced) but not with the Skyline? Is that not bizarre? Jason at Revive Audio said it’s “something about the to... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system That’s fine. You’re entitled to your opinion. I’d avoid words like “nonsense “. There are nicer ways to disagree. We all have extensive listening experience, and some have extensive pro recording experience. Let’s respect each other. @wolf_garcia... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Nice! | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system “Oh, also the treble and bass bands are better than Loki Max.” If it’s this part you’ve referred to, it is readily evident that those bands boosted sound better to me subjectively than Loki Max. Sorry. Miro said much the same a while ago. |
