According to specs the Magni 2 Uber is up there with the Asgard 2.   Improvements from Magni 2:   Aluminum top plate (looks so much better) Pre Amp Output 5 Watt vs 4 Watt.   I think its worth the extra $50. And I was considering the Asgard 2 before but now I'm going with the Magni 2...

Okay so a few months back my house burned down. Luckily it wasn't totally ruined but sadly ruined enough to get it rebuilt. After the fire I grabbed some valuable things that possibly could still work. My friends came along and I told them they can take anything they want and to just make sure...

@Darthmullet Hey how do you like the Corsair. Well from reading your post I can see that you like it. I'm doing a pc build sometime soon and going with a clean aluminum look with the monitor, case, glass desk, and probably going with the k65 that has that brushed aluminum frame. It uses cherry...

@Eliterdso Yes I would like a lot of opinions from you on my build. It will be for gaming and video editing. Oh and of course music listening and production. I'm young without bills and I work a lot so I wanna get quality parts. So far what I plan on getting is: Intel i5 4690k, Asus...

Thanks @Currawong I'm really liking head-fi by the way its a daily habit. And even more reason for me to spend money on equip.

@malloy yeah the tube ones are interesting but solid states are more reliable and you usually have better volume control. If you got a deal on the Asgard then you made a smart move. You probably don't need better phones but a DAC if you don't already have one to hear true potential of the...

The avatars are like random when you sign up, but after you post maybe 50 times or 10 idk I haven't got there yet, but then you can change your avatar. How do like your Asgard 2 it's like everyone on here has some type of Schiit equip. I plan on getting the Gungnir when I have enough for it...

This thread is EPIC! Congratulations to whoever started it. Nice and broad and I don't see how any arguments could arise from such a beautiful thread. Usually people into the electronic music know and understand its very broad and everyone likes what they like.   Personally I have to say...

It is not as good as the Biofrost/Biofrost Uber/Gungnir if I were you I would get the Biofrost Uber unless you plan on using balanced XLR connections. Then get the Gungnir. The best part about buying audio equipment is that it last a long time and with Schiits upper end DACs theyre upgradeable...

From what I'm reading basically this works as a passive pre amplifier. So could I have the output running to my monitors then for two inputs say an xbox 360 and a cable box. Then I can toggle between inputs and whichever input I'm in would play through my monitors. That's pretty nice and worth...

Finally meeting some people helping me out thank you so much @kothganesh and @Liu Junyuan going with the gungnir definitely.

I'm building a rig my self, not like some super computer but just an i5 and some other quality parts as far as the fans and psu. Just gonna start with 8gb ram and a 500gb ssd. I can get a good deal on a gtx 770 so im gonna go for that. And the rest of my money is going into my monitors DAC and...

Yeah when I used to have the 595's I would listen to them on the bus on the way to school in the early morning and some people would get upset cause they were trying to sleep so I started using Klipsch S4i's they are really great IEM's for the money. As far as closed ear choices I love my 380s...

I'm thinking since tech support said it would work that's the way I would go. You can always return it if it doesn't work. However I feel like it makes logical sense. The Gungnir is their top DAC but I don't see the difference between the desktops USB and the laptops USB unless it's 1.0 if...

How do you like the 595's I had a pair awhile back but didn't use them too often because they only sounded nice when used with amp/dac I had a FiiO e7 I think, but lost it all in a house fire. Luckily I wasn't there so I still have my 380 pros and my life. However after I get my...
