Schiit Mjolnir headphone amplifier - Page 159

From Jason


"Those waiting for the Statement will be waiting a while. No point in releasing an amp when we don't have a DAC yet (multiple setbacks with DSP platforms going end-of-life, boring engineering stuff, etc.)"
 

Don't sound like first or second Q of 2013 to me..

 

What's the harm of releasing the amp first and then the DAC later on in the year?

Then what could possibly be the 'new stuff' being shown at the Bay Area meet in just over a month?

Who knows. Balanced mini Schiit's. tongue.gif

 

I don't doubt it could be a pre production unit. Let us know, Max!

Well, I won't be going, but Purrin and company I'm sure will let us know. I see Jason trolling the thread as we speak, though. tongue.gif

Nods.  The two are separate markets.  Obviously some will want both but using the Statement amp with the Gungnir works.  I believe the Statement is more or less a feature packed Mjolnir which as long as that includes a pre defeat switch, it's gold in my book.

That's what I heard way back when. Any other information on this amp since then, or is Jason keeping tight-lipped on this one?

Change in company policy, which I don't mind at all, its just hard to wait it out having had info from a time before the policy change that it was coming.

I'm sure the communication policy change reduces costs but I have to imagine the lack of hype train derails sales too.

I'm not sure about that. Look at those Schiit mini's and how one night they weren't there and the next day they were. It blew up.

 

Although, making a statement amp thread...it would be awfully quiet until the bang.

But how many people bought O stacks not knowing they were coming down the pipe?

What's that to do with Schiit though?

I bought the M&M stack as soon as I saw it like the first or second day.   I just don't know why they want to bring both out together.  Both will sell regardless
