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

    Appreciate the inside "how the sausage is made" update, even if the update is negative or unfortunate! As a consumer of schiit gear, this kind of just narrows down my next schiit purchase to either a Vali 3 or Valhalla 2 (Lyr+ I am unsure of, because at 600+ with a tube, the cost reminds me how...

    Which tube should I be getting?

    Thanks for the further insight. If there’s nothing to be done for the Fulla, I’ll be sure to try out the Vali 3. I’ve been window shopping a Schiit tube hybrid for a while now. I’ve always hesitated because my cat likes to jump on my desk so I’ll just have to be more aware of when I’m using it...

    If this is sincere then I may just need to see what’s going on with the Vali 3!! How hot does it get? I’ve never owned tubes, but are we talking Asgard 3 level of warmth or is tube heat a different animal? *I think when people say Asgard 3 runs hot that they are exaggerating mine runs a little...

    Right under the two year warranty date, my Fulla E microphone input makes my PC37X unlistenable (was on a zoom meeting and my dissertation chair couldn’t make out anything I said. Had to switch to on board audio on my PC. Emailed support, hopefully starting the process before the warranty end...

    Here's a question on tubes: I have some headphones and I want to try tubes: do I go for a Valhalla 2, a Vali 3, or wait for Valhalla 3? Put a different way, should my first tube product be a hybrid or otl (or otl/ocl) product?

    Hope we get a Vali 3 writeup today--on the assumption that Jason has had time to actually get the chapter finished, I know he's very busy. I just get excited for new products from Schiit!

    Something is better than nothing, I think we all can appreciate this stuff takes time. Or at least I hope people would.

    Then maybe I’m just being overly sensitive to changes in a product, like when Ragnarok 2 changed to using a toroid transformer and Schiit proceeded to update the product page with an internal reflecting that change. But I will say, you specifically are a guy I enjoy reading the content of, so if...

    I’m not **** on schiit by expecting product pages to be accurate. I love the brand, I want it to succeed as it has been. I’m genuinely surprised that someone would think I’m asking something that is superfluous or that I’m demanding answers. If my post reads in a rude manner it’s not meant...

    I’m not demanding. I’m telling Schiit that their product page has inconsistent orientation of their usb unison connections via usb c. It is literally inconsistent. I like Schiit. I own 4 products and will buy more. I’m not being a begger nor am I choosy. I’m sure Jason and co. give a damn about...

    Hi: thank you for correcting a mistaken use of a phrase. As for how or why, Jason literally talked about the process of doing USB C connectors right and getting them reliable. I get bored and check the schiiit site between dataset analysis and if I find a mistake, I ask. I’m not trying to be...

    I was looking at the Urd product page, and I noticed a weird discrepancy. The picture of the back of the URD looks like the USB C ports are all vertical, but the pcb photo looks like it would be horizontal, and the manual shows the usb c ports as being horizontal. So this begs the question: is...

    Sorry to shift the Schiit sine wave of the forum thread, but I have a quick question on the wallwarts for Midgard—how long is the actual cable from plug to the end of the cable going into the wallwart itself? I’m considering getting one for my desktop with a modius and then taking my Hel+ to...
