Given how close the IT01X graph looks to the IT00's, do you think they are using the IT00's graphene driver but dual-coated it with Beryllium?
very close indeed :) if there's sound differences between both must be not from the FR itself, but from harmonics or distortion profile... (which unfortunately not plotted)

We are sorry that because the GK10 blue panel has run out. It was not available in time, so now we have made some red and green colors. Customers who have purchased blue panels and have not shipped, we will inform you change the color or postponed.

Green looks excellent.

Any chance of providing a graph?

All good, my blue pair dispatched last week :thumbsup:
If they live up to the hype then I may have to collect all the colours!

Schiit just came out with their new hardware EQ, the Lokius at $300. I just ordered the silver.

I used to have the Loki but gave it to a friend, because it wasn’t balanced and my chain was being upgraded to balanced at the time. While I don’t ever EQ, maybe more out of laziness and streamlining my listening experiences or whatever, but it’ll be cool to add this hardware to my desktop rig for the heck of it.

I always liked the Loki’s EQ somehow more than what I was able to achieve in software. No idea why. Maybe the hardware based EQ is better somehow, or maybe the Schiit engineers just designed bands that pushed each part of the range just right.

In any case, I’m looking forward to playing around with it, and it’s nice that it has balanced ports to keep my whole chain balanced. The old, smaller Loki wasn’t balanced.
Modius, Magnius, Lokius,
I'm waiting for the release of
The Most Shchiitius Schiit Ever

I am poking a bit of fun at audio. Love the guy. He is always good for a good recommend especially when your ready to step up your game into uber expensive territory.
Yea I know bro haha. :)

I got the notice from Penon. Ordered last week, but guess they ran out of blue before mine was dispatched. It's not a big deal as things go, for sure. But I sure love me some color blue, as my car is blue and painted my house blue, among most of my other choices.

If the GK10 sounds really good (and sells like hotcakes), hopefully they'll decide to offer it in a more standard shell (not heart shaped) with color/faceplate choices...and I'll buy another one.

I placed an order on the GK10. Price is too low to ignore for what you get! $39 with coupon code on Penon Audio.

Is a review in the making @Dsnuts ?

It would be a crime if I didn't. These deserve a full review if there ever was one. I have been writing about them all week.
I hope to get something out by the end of the week or maybe early next week. Dependent on how much stuff I gotta do during my weekend but. I plan on it.
