Schiit Valhalla has been shipped......reviews, impressions and musings. - Page 26

Valhalla just arrived. Picked it up on the way to work. Opened it at work, noticed they'd given me the wrong power plug. I specified a 230v unit with an Australian plug. They supplied the correct unit, but an American power cable. No biggie, emailed Jason, he replied within 10 minutes, giving me the option of mailing back the power cable and he replaces it with an Australian cable, or I go and buy a regular PC cable. Did the latter, went out and bought a regular 230v PC cable. Got home. plugged it in and nothing happens. Tried a whole bunch of different PC cables, all the same 230V, and pulled from working computers and it still doesn't work.

 

Any ideas?

Hello,

How do you guys think a pair of Low Impedent headphones like the Ultrasone Pro 2900 would be paired with the Valhalla? I know that the Asgard is more made for low impedent headphones but I am just curious how lower impendent headphones sound with the Valhalla. Since it may not be good on paper but when actually tried it may be a good match 

Thanks,

Arion

I have used my Grados with the Valhalla and enjoyed it very, much.

I think I am going to go insane... I have read 100 comments about the K701 + Valhalla pairing. I have never seen so many divided opinions in my life... and I do come from Macedonia! The place with most divided opinions in the world!

 

I am really keen on this combo, especially that I am planning to buy the Bifrost as well. Lord of Head-fi!! Please HELP ME! deadhorse.gif

Well, the 701 has the most divided opinions of all the headphones around here, so it's not surprising that comments about the amps driving the 701s are also divided.

So has anyone done a comparison with the Schiit Lyr? 

I plan on purchasing a HD650 in the future. I would be curious if anyone has done the comparison.

I am curious if anyone got a chance to compare Valhalla to Maverick TubeMagic A1 side by side? I've read through this thread but did not find anything. Search on A1 thread only yields someone asking the same question :)

 

It would also be interesting to hear similar thoughts about Valhalla vs Little Dot MK IV.

 

Cheers!

As a former Maverick customer, I can safely say to never buy anything from Maverick. The stuff is rubbish and the business itself is very sketchy.
