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.

In my experience there has always been some insertion loss when using devices such as the Loki. Must be I think. But properly used the 'cure' is much better than the sickness. Optimally I think a device like the Loki belongs in a tape loop. I have multiple sources and it works better with some than others. FWIW.

An email was sent to Schiit...
"Is the Loki power supply switching mode or linear?"

Alexander V from Schiit Audio replied the same day, "It is a linear supply."

From the Schiit website re the Loki power supply:

“ 'Wall wart' style 8VA 16VAC transformer, regulated +/- 17V rails"
