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.

I will bet you MQ112 beautifies the sound of your very good gear quite nicely, depending on the needs of the discs you spin

@mapman Thank you for showing me that. I do remember reading that in priors. 
@tlcocks Thank you for breaking that down for me. And yes that’s another reason why I also went for the McIntosh Q112 over the Schitt Max even though I did love the remote  , because the 112 really is a beautiful piece of gear and looks great with my high end gear  Much more than Schitt Max  

 

 

 

 

👍

right on!  It’s a great piece, im sure. Look forward to eventually hearing it!

If I ever need another EQ, when my CO dies, it will be DW Fearn VT-5. It’s stereo ganged (one set of controls, not two). It has adjustable master gain. It’s got passive LC circuitry with class A triode tube stages.  It’s a cool $10,900 new. 😆🎧🎶

SPL PQ does stereo link, ganged, also. $6500

if you LOVE analog studio there are many choices
