SchiitLokius 6-Band Balanced Tone Control Equalizer (Black)

Recently put together a sound system with some real speakers and some amps and wanted more tone control. The eq market isn't what it was when I was a teen. This seemed to be one of the more solid offerings. I wish it was 10 bands but it definitely gets it done. If you want more than that flat signal this will bring out the crisp highs and punch out those lows. No frills, just some knobs that work.

Quality is very important for music. This product does a great job with tone control and introduces no distortion in the music. Totally worth the money.

Great EQ with a very little noise comparing with Douk Audio EQ. Bypass switch is a great asset. Also, I am using it as an input switcher connecting balanced audio with the CD and regular RCA with the phono preamp. The bypass allows you to listen pristineCD or LP and if something needs a little correction you can just flip it into the chain and adjust sound to the taste.The only strange thing for me was that RCA out and XLR out will output THE SAME signal and XLR balanced output delivers too much signal level into amplifier causing over modulation. Logic of this is strange to me as I was assuming that RCA and XLR input/output are used independently. The ShiiT manual or tech description says nothing about it. I've discovered this by experimenting. The fun and lighthearted language of the manual is cool but I think some technical details could be helpful.Again, the quality is great, sound is great, bypass is great. Knobs and distance between them - not so much. The process of knobs rotation is a bit awkward. Those knobs could benefit from some additional "human interface" design makeover.

I have been looking for an affordable, high-quality equalizer for years and finally one has been made. For what I listen to, mostly classic rock, it really helps fix some of the terrible recordings I have. I would recommend one if you are in the market for an equalizer.

Just bought it the last days of August, used it ONE time and now the equalizer doesn’t work in either mode RCA/balance.. only passes information from one end to the other.. not a reliable one..
