Not to take anything away from the McIntosh, but where the money went into this design is clear:
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.

@dgarretson Dont understand what u mean. >McIntosh : But where the money went into this design is clear. |
@tattooedtrackman Look at the SkyFi video at 49:00 and see what circuitry $3000 buys you, and then look at the Massive Passive video, and look at what $6000 buys you. There is certainly more than twice as much going on in the Manley unit! I'm not putting down the MQ112 at all.... I'm actually considering one! I got my MassPass used over 10 years ago, for around $2700. It sounds gorgeous, but you need 2 hands to drive it. You really want ganged controls for stereo program eq-ing. @stonyb3165 Proclaiming that a Loki Max is all "ANYONE" needs is a bit presumptuous. You could have just said "is all I need". Other people may have different needs, or sense of aesthetics. The Loki Max would look stupid in @tattooedtrackman beautiful system. The MQ112 looks perfect!!

@mirolab Understood. Let talk about aesthetics. The Loki Max TO ME looks extremely cheap and small, not blending in well with my system. The Massive Passive is I’m sure a phenomenal piece of equipment but way to big and way to industrial looking for my taste. If I had a recording studio and doing mixes etc I’d definitely buy one. And I agree that what u said “ The MQ112 looks perfect in my system And sound beautiful. That is all that I needed. IMO. |
