Go get out your pitchforks, I’ve done a sacrilegious thing. . .

What are some of the settings that you are using? 

Boosting bass and treble for low volume listening?

Rolling off the top end?

Boosting the midrange for added warmth?

I've got 2 8024 Behringers...one 'listens' to the room while the other corrects for it.  Both digital, both leave no trace of being in the path.

But I'm one of those heretics' that believe fancy cables are just esoteric eq....*L* 

I’ve used equalizers for room correction. I’ve settled on a couple Rane ME60s for two of my systems. They do the job -- 30 sliders per channel at 1/3 octave intervals. Great pro build quality with minimal unwanted impact on sound quality.

The last lemming jumped off the deep end.

I was drawn to your post to see what responses you promoted.

However, your comment "It’s dead quiet, and I can’t discern the difference in bypass mode either." has me confused. Please can you provide clarification?

As an early Loki enthusiast I have 2 of 'em (original and "+"). Great and absolutely transparent bit of gear, one for my TV rig and another for headphones and general EQ when needed in my main hifi system. Although the "Max" isn't cheap I bet it's fun to sit there and remote control things...note I also have Heresy IIIs (better mids than the IVs I had for a couple of months) and a Bifrost II.

Enjoy it.

The high and mighty types looking down their noses at those using EQ are pathetic. Do what makes your system sound how you want it to sound and what fits in your budget. Ignore the snobs, they're part of what's wrong with this hobby.

Awwww Schiit….

A man must have his tools to correct that which needs adjustment.

I'm not at all surprised you're being ostracized. In fact I wouldn't expect anything else.

Personally I prefer this approach over Audyssey, Dirac and other room correction options that compromise sound quality.

Six bands are not going to be narrow enough to tame the those pesky peaks.

Play white noise or a sweep tone with a quality microphone and use an analytical app to see how the frequency response is being changed.

Based on your outcome it seems both a wise and very cost effective solution. Congratulations.

So then you haven’t heard it and have no idea. Check. 

On another forum I read that attaching pennies to the knobs helps stabilize the soundstage.  There was a heated debate of BluTack vs. Gorilla Glue.

If it's good for you, it's good fir you! Enjoy!

Shame on you. A public flogging is a more appropriate punishment!

Good to hear. Glad your enjoying it and thanks for posting
