    Low impedance headphones on Schiit Valhalla 2?

    Getting caught up on the thread. I sold the Valhalla 2 about 2 years ago and have moved on to the Ayre Codex and McIntosh MHA150. Both of these work great with everything that I throw at them. I currently have the following headphones: Audeze LCD 2 Audeze EL8 Closed Audeze Sine Closed...

I recently started searching for a suitable over ear closed design to augment or replace the B&W P5.  I typically listen to my headphones while traveling or before going to...

    Low impedance headphones on Schiit Valhalla 2?

    TinearedOne - Sorry for the delayed response to your question.  I found after my review of the Valhalla 2 that my experience with the AKG K702 wasn't limited to the Valhalla 2.  I am currently using the Burson Soloist and find the same attributes of the AKG K702 to be there. It is leaner than...

    Recommendations for powered monitors to pair with my Schiit Valhalla 2

    I recommend checking the Audioengine powered speakers out. I personally have the A2+ speakers and really enjoy them with my Valhalla 2. They provide great near field sound for the money.

    Review by 'Hifi Enthusiast' on item 'Schiit Audio Valhalla 2'
