Schiit Gungnir DAC - Page 53

Yeah it's ok,but your right about that impatient part

 

You'll understand how much of a joke I was making when you finally get that pair. You'll be a world of bliss. 

I like this!

However totally not helping my patience issue

Yeah I forgot to mention that I also bought a pair or LCD 3's, ordered Sunday, gonna be at my door on Thursday. That's probably another reason I'm getting really anxious. I'm anxious to find out about the next level of Schiit since I have and used all of their products, and I'm especially anxious the difference between the LCD 2 and LCD 3. Hopefully I get to do all this in another week or so.

Not much to be anxious about imo.

 

 

Ouch, that's just cold

Apologies for the schadenfreude, but that part was great. Thanks for the good chuckle.

 

Haha, ouch, didn't realize you sold your previous setup before the Mjolnir/Gungnir arrived. I suppose that'll make the difference a bit more obvious though when they do get there though.

Yeah the previous setup funded the new combo but it should be in for the Charlotte meet on the 20th I hope. Then we can have a all solid state schiit combo throw down, magni/modi vs asgard/bifrost vs mjolnir/gungnir.

 

That'll be some good fun, although I expect to then end up wanting to save for Mjolnir/Gungnir. The Magni and Modi have turned out to be quite impressive though.

I'm waiting too. It's a little frustrating. Ordered a Gungnir on 12-06.

Did you end up contacting Schiit during the wait? With the wait time for me I asked if they could add the usb option after some thought so if I needed to use the gungnir with my macbook air I could. They told me hoping to ship in about 10 days, and that was 12/26. I expect it to be more than that tho.

I did contact them and was told they were looking at the end of December for shipment. At the time I placed my order, the Schiit website stated an estimated shipping date of 12-10, IIRC. My guess is that the production of the new DAC and amp recently released bumped the production of our orders back a bit.

Thanks for relaying the updated shipping estimate.

that suck, i wanted to buy one but now I think i'll go with musical paradise mp-d1... 

 

I really wish somebody could compare those two... 

 

I really like the idea of having all tube analog stage with the ak4399... since ak4399 i found that the bifrost was missing a little in the midrange against CS4398 dac... 

 

but i wonder how good the analog stage, power, clock and reclocker is in the gungnir against that mp-d1... 

 

wish somebody could compare both in a real true fight !! :)

What's the rest of your chain look like?
