They didn't necessarily bring out both Gun and Mojo together. I don't think everyone will be looking at both, so I agree they'll sell regardless.

It is nice and uniformed though to present both. Although, the wait has been long enough.

Agreed, I'm sure they'll look nice together, but if the amp's ready then they really should just announce it.

Those are sales lost to a competitor.  May eventually try the M&M but might not.  Hype tends to keep people from drifting away ;)

All they have to do is show us a few pictures in a Statement amp thread.  They the hype train will start..

Yup.... The more information that comes out the more interested people will get. Any competition that gets released will also have us all going "but we still haven't heard what Schiit will be making".

The difference being $100-200 kits (mass quantity) compared to $1400-2000 flagship products.

The flagships definitely need the hype moreso than the main stream audio stuff. Need to convince people to toss in the extra money.

Absolutely disagree. You do know of Jason and Mike's past ventures, right.

True that. Schiit is hyped simply by being founded by those guys.

Also, the statement statement linked above gives us enough to hype about. The amp will drive absolutely anything you wear on your head or in your ears, and most speakers as well. One amp to rule them all. Now that is what I call endgame. 

And the DAC will be some DSP-based bloody wonder, in spite of DSP-based DACs such as the NAD M51 now being on the market without revolutionizing anything (as far as I've seen and heard) he still says this DAC will be something else. I'm no less hooked than I was from the very first hints at this DAC. To me, this just means that I might be able to buy it when it comes out rather than waiting half a year for funds...

^^^^^The Hype train has started --  All aboard...^^^^^

Word is it will make toast and slice Julian fries.

Hi there,

I see at Schiit's website the Mjolnir is a high-voltage amp. Will it be good paired with my LCD-2 which loves the current so much

And do you all know what is "no overall feedback"?

Thanks so much

LCD-2 + Mjolnir = Great Pairing
