Mine arrived Friday. I was hesitant to order, but when Christian told me it was the last one in this production run, I couldn't resist. I was able to spend a few hours with it last night, and I'm glad I pulled the trigger. It's both liquid and layered, with the blackest background (almost...

Probably depends on your overall ventilation. I finally got a chance last night for an extended session with the MJ3 (three hours), and it ran significantly cooler than my Freya+. Both have their own shelves on my rack.

I had that happen on a piece of silver gear before I went over the Dark Side. Windex and elbow grease worked. I should have noted earlier : I do have spacers between the Loki Max and Urd. Nothing fancy, just something to get a little extra breathing room between them.

My Urd has lived on top of my Loki Max since I got it. No issues here.

Thank you. Been waiting a while for the MJ3 and the Super Schiit Stack is complete (for now). Fortunately, my wife just looks at the system and shakes her head. Just the occasional, "what does that one do differently?" She's more visual and I'm more audio, so we complement each other well.

Nah, you are right: Black is where it's at. Silver is for remotes. (Apologies for craptacular photo work.)

Thanks for the further elaboration, Jason. I mean, I'm grabbing one regardless, just figuring out placement for the stack. Sounds like Folkvangr will stay on the top shelf (all the better to see the pretty lights).

Does the Mjolnir 3 run hotter than Folkvangr? Apologies if I missed an earlier comparison.

After three more weeks with the Rockwell Rev 2 (which has been joined recently by a Schiit Folksvangr, because why not?), I finally rolled a NOS 12AX7 into the amp - still haven't touched the NOS Sylvania 6B4Gs that Justin included - and, damn, this Mazda grey plate that a guitar-head buddy...

Sorry, I can't help. Let's see if we can get Justin (@ampsandsound) to weigh in.

Now that I’ve had the Rockwell Rev. 2 for several weeks, I thought I’d post some more detailed impressions. I don’t think Amps and Sound and Justin get the attention they deserve. This is the second A&S I’ve had (I’m coming from the Pendant SE) and they have both been wonderful. Justin is, as...

I don't have the Big Ben, but both A&S amps I do have sound great with the Yggy OG. I love my Morpheus, but I run it with the I2S module paired with the Hermes streamer, so cannot comment on its USB implementation. Have you run your Bifrost 2 in your setup? Assuming it is multibit, BF 2 will...

I'm glad to see we are keeping Justin busy. It's been the better part of a decade since I've posted, but recently I've had the privilege of owning a couple of amps from ampsandsound. First, the ZMF-branded Pendant SE, which was amazing in its own right. And, as of today, the Rockwell Rev 2...

Just a quick public "thank you" to Desmond.  I appreciate the follow up email on my purchase (DITA Answer, Truth Edition) and the ear tip suggestions. Good folks making great equipment.  For any fence sitters out there: Buy them.  You wont' regret it.

I have both and like both.  I find the IE800 to be a bit more comfortable, with a more microphonic cable and a little more laid back signature.  I find myself using it to listen to jazz and acoustic music most of the time.  The DITA Answer (Truth Edition) is a little more forward in the mids...
