    Schiit Gungnir DAC

    Most people are happy with 128kbs commercialized Spotify so I doubt you are getting a "gimped" version. I have 2x Gungnir multibits now, 1 for the desktop that sees some 24bit songs and 1 for the CD player. Even the CDs I have are probably not reaching 16 bits.

    Thanks, fast shipping, as described.

    Schiit Gungnir DAC

    I would also say if you are invested in an Apple environment, Apple One is well worth it. I have the family plan and each gets the Apple services. Apple Music has mostly everything in at least 16 or 24 / 44.1 or 48. Some "hi res" songs, too, if you subscribe to that. Me s 16/44.1 is all the...

    Schiit Gungnir DAC

    I don't have an issue with M2 Max, and before that, M1 Macs. I use either Apple Music or Vox (stream and local). I am plugged in to a USB type A slot, however, and not a USB-C to USB A, or a hub. If you do use a converter, try with the $20 apple USB-C to USB A and not an aftermarket and see if...

    Schiit Gungnir DAC

    Out of the blue I got a CD player, but want to add a Multibit DAC eventually. I wish I could get another Gungnir MB, ideally for the clock regeneration just in case. I don't want to move the Gungnir from my Mac setup, since there are a bunch of 24 bit tracks I listen to. I also don't want to get...

    Schiit Gungnir DAC

    New way to do a stack. Needed to raise my Apple Studio Display without paying $400 for the height adjustment. Rearranged the whole desk, too. Headphones are now hanging from under desk on a hook. Gungnir is the DAC that keeps on giving :D.

    I am getting the OG Yggdrassil itch :) but the multibit Gungnir is so nice tho

    Love mine. Can't see replacing it for a Bifrost in the near future. If anything, an OG Yggdrasil would be it.

    Schiit Lyr+ : Impressions Thread

    I bought mine a while back, close to when they came out. Came back to the forum and there are 25 pages of content - wow. I still don't have issues, so may be for the ones having them they were part of a bad batch. The amps should have warranties.

    Schiit Lyr+ : Impressions Thread

    I guess I am leaving it on. Due to work hours, children, and limited time, even if amp is left on, it's no more than 2-3 hours per day, and not everyday. I guess the tube will be fine. Thanks for the input.

    Schiit Lyr+ : Impressions Thread

    I have been using it as a desktop amp. Since I sit down and up often, I can't wait 5-10 min for tube to warm up just to listen to 1-2 songs or a 5 min video. I may just remove the tube and run it solid state mode rather than turning it on and off 5+ times a day. Bummer that I ordered with a tube...

    Not that bad if you have good source. I have Gungnir MB when VCXO was there. I would have gotter a OG Yggdrassil, but didn't have the money. I don't want to get the LiM. You will be happy with either one, however.
