Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
Just curious to hear everyone’s opinions on using an equalizer in a high end hi fi system. Was at work tonight and killing time and came across a Schitt Loki max $1500 Equalizer with some very good reviews. What are some of the pros / Benefits and cons in using one. Just curious. BTW. I’m talking about a top of the line. Hi end equalizer. Mostly to calm some high frequencies and some bad recordings.
@au_lait this quote from your post above : I have very large variety of music that falls outside of what most audiophiles consider well produced, and I view all art as a spectrum like that. Some of the most amazing music I own is some of the worst produced, but there is an undeniable magic Me too. I particularly enjoy live recordings and older recordings that benefit from a small tweak here and there to clean it up a bit. |
Rush is my favorite band of all time. Many of their albums varied considerably in production quality. Most of them benefit massively from high end EQ. The better the EQ, the better the enjoyment! It’s interesting. I’ve found that some of their hi res remasters are worse and sometimes better. The Redbook remaster of 2112 was a huge sonic improvement. The Metallica Black album remaster a big improvement too. Many remasters suck though. Yes production and remasters are so highly variable it’s nuts. I therefore cannot live without EQ. |
@tlcocks What does your system consist of ? I don’t see any posted photos ? Why ? |
