    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Ugh, another one bites the dust, hate to hear it. Life's too short to drink Empire beer... luckily I live in the Bay Area where the craft beer scene is top class!

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Well I guess I'm in trouble... been using IEMs since the early days of Etymotic so almost 20 years and continue to do so, onto bluetooth IEMs now. I do listen at lower volumes than I would otherwise thanks to the sound isolation.

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    @Jason Stoddard I've read a few times now about something – either circuitry or a feature set – not fitting into a chassis. Is one of the current self-imposed design restrictions the chassis size? What would you have done differently if you were able to go to, say, a 12" chassis width for the...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Therein lies the problem. If folks want to put themselves into a bad situation with credit cards, that's typically outside retailer control, but actually offering financing IMO promotes this type of bad consumer behavior. I put furniture stores in the same pot as new and used car sales...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Probably not but I find Pete's house coffee tastes more like burnt ashes than Starbucks. Obligatory Schiit topic: I'll email Schiit if this particular problem persists, but has anyone had issues with the headphone jack on Lyr 2 (or possibly other hp amps with preamp capability) where taking...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Do you mean HI (vs LO) gain on the Lyr 2 as opposed to 1? The Lyr 2 has a gain switch but the Saga does not to my knowledge. According to the manuals, Saga has a fixed gain of 1 (0 db) and the Lyr 2 is Hi = 10 (20db) or Lo = 1.5 (3.5db). I take that to be relative to the input signal, which...

    I don't see it, but never say never. I for one am not affected by this FOMO and do not care to pursue that path, but if you do purchase a Brooklyn to check it out, please do and report back!

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Digital EQ hasn't been working for me either so the new Loki is very tempting. How does one physically stack a Loki sized component between a Bimby and a Lyr 2? Looks like I'm going to have to place the Loki on its side next to the mid-size Schiit stack given my lack of horizontal desk space...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    I confess that I have between 80 and 100 linear feet of vinyl, mostly jazz, many of which has not seen a digital release other than from a ripped LP. Alas, since the birth of my son just over 5 years ago I have barely added any vinyl and the number of dedicated LP listening sessions has dropped...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Someone mentioned Ety's. They would have to come from this family of earphones: https://www.etymotic.com/consumer/earphones.html I used Ety 4Ps for almost a decade before "tiring" of its awesome flat response. I bring Etymotic ER-20xs "high fidelity" ear plugs with me to concerts. [Etymotic...

    i just read through the manual, thanks.  Got some laughs out of it, too.

    Nice!  What a clean looking product and board.  But is there no official picture of the remote control?

    Schiit Fire and Save Matches! Bifrost Multibit is Here.

    I'm a little late to the game but just submitted my MB order. Guess the rush is over or Schiit is working double time as I'm only 6th in line!

    Why yes, we are entirely Fulla Schiit.

    Ok, I received the micro B to mini B USB cable but my iPhone 6 doesn't want to work with the chain:   iPhone --> Lightning to micro B USB adapter --> micro B to mini B USB cable --> Fulla --> headphones   When plugged in the phone displays this message:     and while I did get some hum...

    No, not yet.  I've received items from HK in as few as 3 days but this time around no such luck.
