    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    It looks like the system I use, except for all the auto-filtering stuff. I went the manual filtration route, using a water jug with built in gravity filter. The ultra sonic bath isn't quiet, though. I have to shut the doors and go two rooms away to not hear it, but I only run it for about five...

    Phew! I can rest in peace now.

    It's sad to see Schitt resorting to glue if that's what it is. Glues are the worst when trying to repair electronic stuff. I hate having to use heat; you never know if I've used too much or too little. Lately, the best solution I've found that works okay most of the time is to spray the glued...

    Always liked the killer harmonies on 'A long way there'. Try the Album 'Whispering Jack' for John Farnham.

    Schiit Mjolnir 3 - Impressions Thread

    Been listening to my MJ3 for a couple of months now and I didn't notice the lack of SQ you are describing. If anything it has one of the best sound stages I've heard. A lot of MJ3 owners have noticed the MJ3 can be very picky concerning the DAC's that are used with it, so, just maybe that is...

    Yes, it sometimes seems something got lost along the way. But at least with hifi your not forced to upgrade your software to keep your favourite sounds happening if you don't want to. Your 78 speed vinyl player will still run just fine into a pair of active speakers and you don't need to back it up.

    "I remember doing the time warp..." So guttural, who sings like that! So much fun. Yeah, I was there at the live shows in the mid 70's. Thankfully my parents declined to go.

    You can scan your cd covers or take a picture of the Album covers and then include this image file (jpg) in the folder with the song files. The artwork will then show on the players screen. This works in Volumio not sure about Roon.

    I have a Simple Minds Live cd mastered by Nimbus, from sometime in the 80's. (I think the labels back then were clutching at straws trying to keep up with cd demand.) It sounds smooth and slick compared to other copies, by other companies which sounded dry and rough by comparison including the...

    Having a DAP is like having my HiFi with me when I'm away from home. I can pretty much squash all my flac files onto it. Hiby is my favourite DAP, and it's balanced, too. It's much like the portable CD, cassette, and mini radios of old, which were used with headphones as folks listened to their...

    Yeah, not a big fan of apple I must say and I think you came to a fair and just solution.

    Cycle's all oiled and rar'in to go. Just wish the rain would stop. Oh, well, I did try, he thinks as the HP's slip over the head and the silver volume on that black piece of Schitt gets turned it up ever so slightly.

    The pic's of the eclipse displayed on this forum have been fantastic. Umm... I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade, but if this last pic is for real, then I fear the end must be near.

    I wasn't going to comment on this because I'm about a week behind in posts, but I couldn't help myself. So forgive me if someone has already posted a way better reply. I don't understand what modulated PCM is or what is wrong with it... continuous what? The gist, I think in layman's terms, is...
