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.

Don´t know of any dsp processor that hasn´t got digital in/out.
That’s right and that dac is taking the place of your pride and joy dac if you had one you liked, do you want this, cause then you may as well sell your prized dac.

Because there’s no sense (nutz) in going from digital source into your prized dac the from it’s analog out into the analog in of digital speaker/room/eq/xover processor. you’d be going D to D/A to A/D then D/A

You’d go digital source straight to the digital input of the digital in on the speaker/room/eq/xover processor. So you’d go D to D/A

Say by-by great dac that you owned, for whatever junk d/a converter and analog stage is in the processor.

Then if you didn’t own a dac you loved the sound of, then it doesn’t matter what you hear.

Playing cd or streaming it´s digital only to the dac. External or internal. Your choise. Playing vinyl it would be an extra A/D and D/A. Or use a Loki.
“But yeah, whatever sounds best, do it.  I think it’s slightly comical that we’ll elevate cables, have everything placed within an 1/8 of an inch, panels hanging on our walls, sit in exactly the right place, but tone controls?  Oh hell no.”

i totally agree with that comment from b_limo.
I have had one for a while now, and just love it. No noise or any minuses. Just a great product.
I have recently used the Loki to cool off a Klipsch KG4 just a touch. Also has worked great for a rocker type speaker - Cerwin Vega LS-12 where the tweeter is way too forward, little bit off at 2k and a bigger cut at 8k. Bam now the CV is doing what it does and my ears aren't bleeding! :)
