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

    I disagree with one thing here. Biology is not just applied chemistry. Why? Evolution.

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

    I agree. This little watt amp would have to be something special SQ-wise. I can just as easily use a Vidar with my 95db sensitive speakers, which are rated to 200w power handling and call it good. What I want is to be able to take advantage of a better amp design by virtue of having these...

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

    I feel like high sensitivity speakers are getting more attention these days. I have some myself and will soon be in the market for a replacement for my 50 watt Emotiva amp. For those who have sensitive speakers, the difference between 20 and 25 watts would be negligible in my opinion. Just keep...

    Yup I avoid Starbucks. Always tastes overroasted to me, no matter what type of coffee I get. I roast my own beans at home. Cheap and much better results.

    Just another vote here for the low-power class-A amp!

    I totally am with you on this one. My Tekton m-Lores are practically begging for this, as are your speakers (from what I can tell). Right now I'm driving them with a 50w Emotiva amp and I really can't complain about the sound, but I'm thinking a new amp might be my next buy for my speaker...

    Sweet. I've been reading a lot about these speakers. I have the Tekton m-Lores and love them. I don't really need more than what the m-Lores offer right now, but someday I'm sure I'll step up to something like the DIs (more likely the Electrons, for a smaller footprint). I cannot recommend...

    What a long, strange trip it's been -- (Robert Hunter)

    Tough assignment, but here's some variety: Radiohead - In Rainbows Sigur Rós - Valtari Sarah Jarosz - Follow me down Gillian Welch - The harrow and the harvest (or any album) The Strokes - is this it

    Woohoo!   Just FYI, I think the output/input specs are incorrect as displayed. They look the same as those for Saga.    Good job. This looks sweet!

    I hadn't seen this banner image yet on the Schiit website... Freya imminent?

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

    I am mostly a lurker on Head-fi, but I just have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed following this Schiit thread. While I don't currently own any Schiit, that will likely change in the future as I am eyeing their speaker-focused equipment.    More than anything I am grateful to Schiit for...

    I bet most of the Tekton (another USA, internet direct company) offerings would sound great with the Rag. Very efficient speakers. I drive my m-Lores with a 50 watt amp from Emotiva. I am eagerly awaiting Schiits new speaker amps...

    Aw man, now I've got the itch to try a Linux music server. I will compare this to my current Windows/Foobar music server --> 2.0 speakers (which I thought sounded good!). Luckily I have a bunch of old PC parts lying around...
