Schiit Fire and Save Matches! Bifrost Multibit is Here.
Okay a minor update. I have a cheap un-powered Monoprice USB hub. If I connect the hub to either MacBook, when I plug the Bifrost Multibit USB input into the hub, the Bifrost Multibit is recognized by the MacBook, BUT when I try listening to music, audio only comes through the left channel.- ddcpitt

Schiit Fire and Save Matches! Bifrost Multibit is Here.
I'm experiencing a very weird issue which I cannot find resolution for anywhere in this thread or elsewhere on the Internet. I received a Bifrost Multibit a few weeks ago and I had been using it back and forth between the coaxial input and the USB (gen 2) input with a PC running Windows 7. I...- ddcpitt

Dan, can you explain the 50% credit for the Alpha Pads and/or 3.2 upgrade? Is it a credit to be used on a future purchase or is there a refund on the full price Alpha Dog upgrade fee? Thanks and great work!- ddcpitt

Are all lossless the same?
Hey there, Google is your friend, my friend. WAV, AIFF, FLAC, and ALAC are all lossless. WAV and AIFF are very similar. They are both containers for RAW PCM audio. WAV was originally a Microsoft/IBM standard and AIFF was originally an Apple standard. They both preserve the PCM audio from CDs...- ddcpitt

NEW - Schiit Asgard 2
Hey, Does anyone know of a store or Head-Fi user selling the latest version of the Asgard 2 that has them in stock? I have an order with Audio Advisor that's been on backorder for over a month. There's a good chance some of you have been waiting even longer, though. Just curious. At this point...- ddcpitt

Schiit Bifrost Uber Analog Upgrade
Terribly dumb question, but am I doing something wrong with regards to these last three screws? I took out all the other screws on the top and bottom with no problem at all. These last three will just not budge. Anybody have an idea what the problem is? Best Regards, Dan- ddcpitt

Schiit Asgard 2 & Bifrost Uber stack, or Woo Audio WA6 with Cambridge Audio DacMagic Plus?
Hello there, I think you should figure out if you want a solid state or tube amp first. WA6 is a tube amp and is significantly more expensive than the Asgard 2, which is solid state. Apples and oranges. I have no experience with the WA6, but considering the WA6 costs that much more, I...- ddcpitt

Hello there, I am in the market for a neutral, closed, and sealed pair of headphones. I am not looking for an overall upgrade, just to fill a small gap in my collection. For the record, I will mostly be driving these from an Asgard connected to a Bifrost, but also will occasionally be...- ddcpitt

Interconnects for Bifrost

I just purchased a Schiit Bifrost (waiting for it to arrive) for use with my Schiit Asgard, Emotiva Pro Airmotiv 5 monitors, and my numerous headphones. I am confused as to what types...- ddcpitt
