Schiit Owners Unite - Page 120

If your looking for some small isolation feets.

Yes I am curious about the statement DAC for sure.  I'm almost certain I won't have any cash to burn when releases.

There's some new Schiit I haven't seen mentioned anywhere, PYST USB cables. No pictures are posted but it is a 1 meter silver plated copper cable for $20.

Sounds interesting.

Initial impressions of the MnM stack that just arrived today. They clear up a little congestion on the Vmoda m-100's (though it's really a non-issue as they are almost entirely for on the go use). I don't really listen to music through my Sennheiser HD 558's (a select few genres work nice though) and in all likelihood they will continue their function for gaming/skype/movie use. 

Now the real test is the Hifiman he-400's that are taking an eternity to arrive. 

Also, is anyone else's power plug on the back of the Magni a little finicky? The tiniest movement and it loses power. Not sure if it's a design issue or a defect in mine?

Nice, i wonder if they will also do 6 inchers.... to keep things tidy.... 

Here's my Schiit ... power supply died and volume knob broke off with in a 1/2 hour's ofuse ... I'd say less than 30 minutes.

  Son of a .... 

Wow... Man you raped that magni hard...

I think you're talking to me.  IF so, yes, it seemed loose from the beginning - a little sloppy.  I jiggled it to see what was going on and it just wiggled out.  Seems to be held in by four little metal clips - probably and easy fix but I'll let them fix it for me.  As far as the power connection goes, mine felt fine, just the power supply itself died.  16VDC power supplies I don't have laying around :(

I'm looking at it now, I think the volume knob assembly was at fault.  Looking at the amp (and I can actually see it in the picture), the tab on the lower left is pressed all of the way down where as the other 3 are not.   Like the 3 tabs were holding to the knob itself and the 4th wasn't - which a). make the knob look crooked (as it did) and b.) make it so the other 3 didn't really have a good grip on it.  Seems like an easy fix but if I'm sending it in, I don't want to mess with it.

Yep, I'd just email them and send it in.  I'm sure they will take care of you.

I have no such issues with my M&M after carting them all over the place.

I just realized the power supply is 16VAC, not DC.  The amp won't turn on and the power supply does measure about 18VAC.  It'll definitely be going back - sounds like something internal went bonkers.  Bum deal.

I guess that magni didn't like the way you handle it. Good luck with your next unit
