I ordered mine on 8/26 so I assume this is official shipping.

My pair just shipped should have them Monday and can give some input compared to 6xx, LCD-X on a Modi 3 and Asgard 2.

Wow that is a lot to take in. So in summary skip the schiit :) ?

I own LCD-X and looking to move to my next for source and amp. Currently Modi3+Asgard 2. Thoughts on the sound of Modius+Magnius running balanced? Not looking to exceed $1K for both. Also eyeing a90+d90 non MQA used.

I like the concept part Fostex TH600 part Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro part V-Moda.  Interesting concept would love to hear how it sounds.  Entered.

How would these compare to the HE-500's?

How do these stack up against the HE-500?  I have the HE-400's and love them and looking for my next great headphone and was thinking these or the HE-500.  Any thoughts?

I used Exact Audio Copy and the rips match with no errors.  Do you know what that software is called?  I still find it funny that this release sounds so bad.

Just tried that and same results I think the mastering is just ****.  You cant tell on speakers really, but if your listening on open headphones it clicks and pops :( kinda a bummer.  I tried EQing it out but failed.

So just ripped my Slayer Repentless CD to FLAC and playing over my DAC/AMP to HE-400's and I hear a lot of clipping or static on a lot of the tracks.  Played a few other FLACS I have made and did not have the same issue.  Took the CD and put it into a standard CD player to my HE-400's again odd...

Still digging the HE-560's?

I know this is an old thread but what did you go with?

Very interested in the opportunity. I have beta tested IT products in the past.

Rocking the HE-400's and love them!  Good luck to everyone awesome prizes!  Thanks HiFiMAN you make my evening once the kids go down much more relaxing :)

If I can make it, it will only be me now (life) I will have he-400 with jerg pad 2.5 mod

Don't forget the ginkgo biloba.

We might be in luck HiFi Man is one of the vendors at the event!  So they might just have the 400i, I'm sure they will have the 560 as well and maybe the 400.  The 400's are being replaced by the 400i which is why there is such a steep discount at the moment($100 off).  I use my HE-400's with...

I will be there along with two others for the fun and games.  I would bring equipment but it is all entry level, looking forward to seeing and hearing the ear candy ;p

Anyone else feel like there should be a separate forum location?  I  was going to review the Aftershokz Bluez and noticed there was not a clear location to put it.  Thoughts?

FIXED yay!  I was not getting enough power out of my USB ports so I had to re-arrange a little but now all is good!  For future reference in case anyone else runs into this post this is the response from Schiit:         Let’s start with basic troubleshooting: Magni/Modi Troubleshooting...

I just received my Modi and Asgard 2 but I can not seem to get any output to my headphones.  I double checked my headphones and they output without issue.  Both devices power and the Modi showed up as Schiit Audio Speakers under Direct Sound in Windows 7 X64 pro.  I set the volume to 100 on my...

Just to update I went with the HE-400's at $300 they were a steal.  I think I will give the Schiit Asguard2 + Modi a go.  

+1 I was just complaining in another thread that I wish there was a way to test a lot of these AMP's and DAC's that people are discussing(odac and Schiit). I thought for sure that had to be a meet up in the Chicago area.  Looking forward to it!   My co-workers are excited too totally worth the...

I totally agree with both options I hope there is something in the Chicago area sooner than later!  I would really enjoy testing a lot of the equipment discussed in the various threads.  Its really hard to blindly order and hope to return :|
