@chuckie1970 Anyone can advise if the Loki max is actually superior to the Cello Palette? I’m pondering if getting Loki max plus preamp or an old Cello Palette. Many thanks.

Good to know about the interface. I’ve had more pressing audio matters to attend to and as a result, haven’t bought a Max. Now, having read your post, I probably, won’t, as the distance from my listening chair to the Max would be more like 10 feet, in my case. At this point, having further tweaked my system, the impetus to utilize EQ has diminished significantly and the Lokius seems enough. Thanks for your report. |
After cataract surgery, my view of the gear became a lot clearer. I missed the Loki Max, so recently I bought one again, now in silver finish (formerly unavailable) to match my other gear. Although I can read the knobs, I prefer more definite indicators. I bought replacement knobs from DigiKey. I do find the unit cleaner than any other analog eq I’ve used. It doesn’t take anything from my listening pleasure; rather, it adds to it. I set Preset 1 to all bands flat, and with each track, I start out that way. If EQ is needed, I can dial it in in a few seconds. Did I really need it? No. Am I enjoying it? For sure!

These continued Schiit EQ testimonies prove time and again they’re worthy of a listen, and even the "purist" in mind should at least take notice. The Lokius which sets one back only a few hundred I consider a bargain / steal, Goldilocks Zone EQ. Those whom may be interested implementing one into their system I’d without hesitation skip right over Loki and purchase a Lokius. I’d certainly be interested in a Max (Schiit EQ trifecta style) if only felt she’d best their Lokius but have my doubts. Max level is purely "man, I ain’t getting up for schiit" convenience. |
