Ugh, these are enticing.  It's going to prove difficult to sit still and wait for the statement stuff.

I am seriously intrigued by the Mjolnir. With the same power output as HiFiMAN's new EF-6 amplifier (which I ordered), I wonder how the two will compare. Knowing Schiit, I wouldn't be so surprised if the Mjolnir turned out to be a serious competitor, even with the lower price (the EF-6 is $1300 in pre-order, and will cost $1500 after that).

Loving that the usb is again optional for $150 savings. Also I really like the looks of this long form much better than the current shorter devices.

Definitely agree on the optional USB, although I'm curious if the $750 includes it or not. I actually think I prefer the current shorter ones, but that might be because I've got them sitting next to me and I've only seen the posted pictures of these. I'll be curious if they still look as stretched out to me when we get more pictures.

I think the small ones look kind of dinky. These look more like real gear.

The links are dead now. It seems that someone at Schiit was definitely watching this thread.

Haha, indeed. Interesting that going to one of those doesn't direct to their normal 'product not found' page but kicks you back to the home page.

Dang... $1500 isnt too bad for a good looking blanced DAC and amp if its good sounding stuff. Cant wait to see how the reviews from third parties rate these guys.
