    Schiit Jotunheim 2 - Impressions Thread

    Never heard Midgard, but if I recall correctly, it is below the Jot in terms of performance. I currently run the 2/64 with the Jot and it's great.

    Schiit Valhalla 3 - Impressions Thread

    This weekend, I wanted to do a little comparison on the V3 between an album that is polished with some production against one that is raw with no fluff. I chose Dark Side of the Moon and Led Zeppelin II. The Bokeh closed was the headphone I used. Dark Side was phenomenal blah blah blah. I...

    Schiit Valhalla 3 - Impressions Thread

    Hi. The Jot 2 isn't going anywhere unless Schiit replaces it with something better/new in the same form factor. I like to have both a SS amp and tube amp. I'm still getting to know the V3 and haven't found anything that the Jot does better but I have only listened to the V3 twice. So this...

    ZMF Bokeh - Open Back Headphones

    I own both and completely agree with you. They are an amazing value.

    Schiit Valhalla 3 - Impressions Thread

    Good morning! I spent between two and three hours listening to the Bokeh open on the V3 last night. I came up with a math problem and solved it; 2/64+V3+BO=:gs1000smile: It was absolute magic for me. I let the tubes warm for 30 minutes this time. I was in awe, seriously. Vocals, guitars and...

    ZMF Bokeh - Open Back Headphones

    I spent over two hours last night listening to the Bokeh open paired with the Valhalla 3 and it is the best combo I have ever listened to. My DAC is the Bifrost 2/64. I also own the Homage. Great amp as well. Pairs fantastically with their headphones, but if you want true tubiness, I say go with...

    It's a Topping unit that I purchased from Apos. Pricey but honestly, it's made very well. Solid. Every piece is aluminum. It's around 11" wide. Perfect size for Schiit's 9" wide lineup.

    Listening to this on my Bokeh open as I type this. When guitars have effects on them, it's like the effects are enhanced now. Guitars sound so good on this.

    Schiit Valhalla 3 - Impressions Thread

    Thanks! I call it man corner. A while back, my desktop setup was themed around The Grand Tour. Special deskmat, keycaps, keyboard cable. I picked up building custom mechanical keyboards during the pandemic. That's another expensive, rabbit hole hobby.

    Schiit Valhalla 3 - Impressions Thread

    I listened to this amp last night for the first time. It was also my first time using a true tube amp. It was only for around an hour and a half. I will put it through its paces this weekend. I didn't experience any cutoffs. Mine was shipped before the "patch". It's plugged into a wall outlet...

    Bokeh open and closed. It's the Talos V2 by Arctic Cables. Thanks!

    Arctic Cables Discussion Thread

    I received two sets of cables from Arctic this week. Each set has one 5' for my desk and one 8.2' to reach my lounge chair. Aegis and Talos V2. Beautiful cables and top notch craftsmanship. I also think they have the most user friendly website of the ones I've visited.
