    INTRODUCING REDESIGNED PLUSSOUND BLUETOOTH CABLES - BT5.0, APTXHD, LDAC, USB DAC/AMP, TYPE-C, AND MORE. COMPATIBLE WITH IEMs AND FULL-SIZE HEADPHONES.

    I must add that using it on flights and outdoors in general with volume at the level I usually listen to stuff (~70%) this has been no issue for me. Specially since the power and clarity I'm getting is day and night difference compared to the garbage BT cable UE sells. Been enjoying it a lot...

    INTRODUCING REDESIGNED PLUSSOUND BLUETOOTH CABLES - BT5.0, APTXHD, LDAC, USB DAC/AMP, TYPE-C, AND MORE. COMPATIBLE WITH IEMs AND FULL-SIZE HEADPHONES.

    been using my BT cable for a while now and it's everything I wanted except the background hiss. I'm using it with UERM. Now I wonder how can I find out about a firmware update whenever it comes out?

    CIEM recommendations under or around 1000$

    Hey guys, so after losing my Westone ES50s last year, I finally have a budget around 1000$ to purchase a new pair of CIEMs. I use studio monitors in my living room and in general like flat response on my audio gear. So far I've came up with two options: -Ultimate ears reference remastered...

    Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread

    I see your point, but is the volume control in a Saga as good as for example what is implemented in the Ragnarok? I really like to keep my system as simple as possible and get components that are as neutral as possible. So if the tube stuff was removed and instead the volume control was a very...

    Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread

    Ok I've been reading on the subject now and I see that was a stupid question haha   I wish Schiit made some sort of a passive preamp with balanced I/O and a high quality volume control for those who don't wanna mess around with tubes. This could be also an option in the DAC lineup in future...

    Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread

    Hey guys, I've been reading this thread since I'm looking for a remote controlled preamp for my two channel setup. I'm wondering if there's any sonic advantage in using a Saga or Freya in passive mode over the SYS?    If not, I'd try to add a motor to SYS and make it remote controlled and save...

    Looking for a high end amp with passive output. Alternatives to Schiit MJOLNIR 2?

    Thanks a lot, didn't even know about this brand until now! This looks good and I can actually order a remote for an extra fee.    But is it really not that many options out there with these requirements? I should add that I'm looking for something under 1K (USD) but can stretch it to 1.5K or...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

      Ok let me clarify! It sounds like ****, relative to what I expect! It sounds pretty good in face, but connecting the digital output of the TV to a 1200USD Marantz receiver and to the speakers is giving me a hardly noticeable improvement over TV headphone jack to speakers, if any improvement...

    Hey guys, looking for a solution to connect my newly acquired active speakers (Genelec G four's) to my TV, I've been reading and searching all over the net and eventually I got interested in the new Schiit stuff coming out soon!

    Investing in my first full size phones (closed) and a matching dac/amp. Need guidelines/suggestions

    you think PM-3 is good enough? How about the closed back EL-8 ?    Any comparison you could make between the HA-2 and Groove in terms of sounds? regardless of features or anything else?

    Investing in my first full size phones (closed) and a matching dac/amp. Need guidelines/suggestions

    Hey guys,    so I need closed back full-size cans for office. Never had any full size cans before. I'm the type that invests for long term use. Used my IE8's since they came out until  a few months ago and recently bought the Westone ES50's to replace them. So I'm willing to up the game as...

    Got my custom in ears (ES50's) and I'm not sure about the fit. Looking for advice.

    hey guys,    I got the ES50's recently and these are my first pair of custom in ears. When I pop them in my ears it feels like they fit perfectly but after a while I get some  ache in my ears and after a longer period it gets better I assume because of the heat activated material used on the...
