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

    Yep, when trying different cables I used shorter ones moving the Skoll as close to the turntable outputs as possible to negate interference. Swapping at both ends still had the noise on the left as well. During testing, the Skoll and turntable were on the top shelf of my console alone and a good...

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

    That's interesting about the dark/silent. I actually found my Mani 2 to be dead silent but the Skoll had a slight hum on the left channel only that I could hear pretty clearly at slightly above normal listening levels. Thankfully it isn't loud enough to be over the noise floor of any vinyl I...

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

    For those who are still interested in some Skoll findings, here’s some quick thoughts after using it for a couple weeks.

    Just ordered a Skoll to upgrade my Mani 2 as I was in a bit of a YOLO mood today. 😅💸 Looks like I’ll be waiting a week or two for shipping but can let you know my findings when it shows up. I’m also on an RT85 but still using the stock 2M Blue for now. The bronze upgrade is coming once my stylus...

    New Member Introductions thread

    Hi everyone, Mike here. I’ve had a pair of Senn HD598s powered by an original Schiit Magni/Modi stack for a loooooooong time and figured it was time to do some deep reading and put together my dream rig. Thanks to all who post their impressions on amps, DACs and cans here as it’s incredibly...
