    Schiit Decrapifier released - USB power isolator

    I had this issue where quite often I could not send signal out through to my DAC. My iMac knew the DAC was there, but it just would not work. For the longest I thought it was Audirvana crapping out - but I read this post someplace that recommended trying the Wyrd.......  It fixed it!!!!  Sounds...

    Vancouver Audiophile Meet May 18, 2014!

    Hey guys - turns out I won't be around to make it tomorrow. I'm really bummed since I missed the last one too. The one before that was so fun! Anyway, I'll keep an eye out and hopefully we can have another one this summer or fall some time.

    Vancouver Audiophile Meet May 18, 2014!

    Got the PM from GG alerting me to the possible meet. Depending on the date and time, I'm up for it for sure. Coal Harbor would be cool for me too, though I'm open with that. I don't have a lot new these days, but can bring my HE-500's , my Bifrost DAC and my LYR amp. I did not make the last one...

    VINYL LOVERS: Rega RP6 Exact Cartridge Factory Aligned...or Not?

    Hi.   I just purchased the same set up as an upgrade to an old NAD turntable I had (which in fact was made by REGA some time ago). Mine was off as well. My dealer determined this in store and set about making corrections. A few days later I re did the whole thing myself...  That said, the...

    Schiit Lyr - The tube rolling thread

    Quote: Mine took a couple weeks, give or take a day or 3. I ordered them Feb 7 - sent to Vancouver, Canada. The post can be unreliable. I fully believe that if I were to buy another set today, it could just as easy take 4 weeks.... ya never know.

    Schiit Lyr - The tube rolling thread

    Quote:   They just plug in like a tube, then the tube plugs into it. They just go in between the tube and the socket on the amps motherboard.   A pic from http://www.tubemonger.com/

    Schiit Lyr - The tube rolling thread

    Quote:   Ok, so admittedly with only a few hours of listening, I have some thoughts.  These Lorenz SEL's are pretty sweet. I think the bass is more controlled, slightly deeper (I think?) and consistant across the range than with the Matsu****a's. The mids seem a bit more present...
