OK…my resistors are also soldered in now…I had an issue or two caused by lack of circuit board soldering experience…😟…but I sorted that... -
qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.You could be right, I just looked at a picture of the PCB and the input relays seem to be on a pair of tracks connected to the 14...

looking at the PCB for Freya+ from the front of the unit, the volume attenuator relays are located on the right edge, 7 relays for each... -
qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.Well no not really, I'm not saying the tubes caused the initial failure, though that is a possibility. @MCH1200 was saying that...

qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.For volume, every 3dB increase is measurable as being twice as loud. The trouble is our human ears/brain perceives a much larger...

This is all such useful knowledge about the Freya…I did not realize that the volume increments increase past 12 o'clock. I am usually at... -
qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.The attenuation is set up as logarithmic progression, so smaller steps at the beginning, gradually getting larger. This is to allow for...

qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.If it were the tubes, the pops would be on all volume settings in tube mode and not on any if in the passive or jfet buffer modes. The...

qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.Just thinking out loud here. I would suspect one of the attenuation relays. Maybe its seeing some DC and passing it through. Trouble is...

qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.:thumbsup: I will be interested on what you think about the resistor upgrade. Make sure you are familiar with the post cap mod sound...

I did this with the CAPS on mine as well. I think Schiit should step it up a notch and offer premium capacitor options on devices that... -
qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.Looking very nice, those grills look like they were factory fitted. I like the bead you put on the volume pot as well. My modified...

OK….I cut the vents horizontally into the top-plate yesterday… I bought a $12.00, 31mm hole-saw 🕳️ for plate steel on Amazon, (I wanted... -
qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.Yes, I've noticed this phenomena many times with caps (mainly in XO work). After 10 to 20 hours they actually start to sound worse, the...

qwin49 replied to the thread Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread.Yes, though the changes were not as dramatic as with some caps I've owned. Started quite nice out of the box at both ends of the...
