Schiit DACs (Bifrost and Gungnir down, one to go)? The information and anticipation thread. - Page 37

Hell, all I would want is a black option for the top level stuff.  Otherwise I'd have to anodize the stuff myself and lose all that Schiit.

I hear Tubbs has three of them

When you say "seen so far," do you mean actual pieces or photos/renderings?  I was in their dealer's showroom this past Saturday listening to a Lyr, and though I didn't run my fingers across its surface or make a detailed examination, it did not look especially rough-textured to me, at least not to the point where there would be crevices deep enough to hold dust.

(BTW, Jason, the fellow I spoke to - not the principal - said he'd love for you to call re the Bifrost.  But likely you've already communicated with someone there about it.)

I actually don't mind the aesthetics of any of them.. I own the PS Audio DLIII & Matrix Mini-i.  Was considering the Bel Canto 1.5 but now that the Bifrost is coming, I think it will be an awesome look for my Head-Fi setup. Not to mention that I expect the combo to sound phenomenal.

What dealer?  I'm a PA guy too...Southeast.  Curious to know what dealers are carrying Schitt in PA.

Schiit has dealers???  That surprises me as with the prices they charge (very affordable) and being US-made, I don't know how they could make any money other than selling direct!

Now that is a good-looking, informative display. Firewire too!

I didn't notice that before, but now the lulz won't stop...

That's one of the best DACs made, btw...

It's even got dangling red haired bangs and a small goatee, heh.

I resemble that last remark; are you talking about me or the DAC?

Then when the time comes, you can sell your Schiit and buy some more Schiit. And I'm sure that you will make a statement.
