Equalizer in a Hi Fi system

Of course he’s entitled to his opinion. I’ve said plenty already in this thread. Won’t repeat. 

Had experience with Loki Max, Charter Oak , Millennia, Avalon, and now Skyline M3D

Very happy owner of 2 Charter Oaks. Prefer them over LM. If you want more than you wish to read about why, start on page 1 😊

Absolutely yes to using equalization for room correction but in this day and age DSP is the most powerful tool to do this best, not analog eq technology that was the best one could do practically say 10-20 years ago or so.
 

If you have a good quality system to start with, corrections for room acoustics is the missing link in most cases to reference quality sound and modern DSP tools provide a much more powerful, cost effective and flexible way to tackle room acoustics properly, though for the less technically inclined, a good old fashioned parametric equalizer could probably do the job.

To the best of my knowledge graphic equalizers with fixed ranges lack the flexibility to precisely do correct room corrections in most cases in that each room is different and graphic Equalizers lack the flexibility needed to do the job correctly.

There’s certainly a lot of good discussion about this earlier in the thread
