Schiit Reference Sytem review: Freya into Yggdrasil, into Vidar

Wolf, where can we read your review? Been considering the gizmo for my office system to "compensate " for the low listening volume, sort of like loudness as abery mentioned.

Just buy it. Very smooth controls, transitions and no artifacts or noise. 15 day return policy. You will not regret

To bad the Loki doesn't have balanced connectivity in/out. Now, "that would be something" :)

It's only an advantage with noise, if the interconnects are over 10mts long.
Single ended in most cases sound better, because many balanced inputs or outputs are just a balanced opamps thrown into the signal path before or after the true single ended input or output!!

Schiit (I spell this wrong often) has hinted (in their site info) that the Loki Mini might be joined by another EQ…Loki Maxi maybe? I bet balanced could be in the offing if that happens. Kalili…my review, such as it is, is here on Audiogon someplace…although Schiit is misspelled. Note that now that I've been using the damn thing for a few days I remain astonished by the fact that it's so quiet, easily tested by flipping it in and out of the line.
