    Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread

    no, dead silent with volume, but a mild pop when muting. Had the tube for years, as I ran them in my Valhalla 1. I've been thinking about an Aegir, but my old Monarchy Class A 100watt mono blocks sound so good. But they draw 200watts at idle.:worried: Also, with the 6n6p. in the so called...

    Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread

    Everything is better with the Nexus, but it's also a touch more lively. For my Tekton Pendragons, it's a bit too much for me. Now I run the N with 6n6p/6n23p tubes, and it's much better.

    Schiit Freya Impressions and Tube Rolling Thread

    pops are on the amp. My Freya S popped like crazy with my 90's mono blocks. When I hooked up a Vidar amp, pops were gone. Must be some sort of filtering on the Vidar that my old mono blocks don't have. Long story short, the Vidar sounded like Ass compared to the 30 year old mono blocks, so I...

    I notice a ver. 2 today. Any change to the sonics/tone from the first. Could one detect a difference doing an A/B listen from old to new? :scream:

    Such a deal for a PCM1704 DAC. If I did not just buy a Canary, I'd be all over this!

    Ares & DAC68 must go. There's a new dog in town.

    I'm not into DAC flipping, and I have no upgrade bug. I got this cheap, and thought I'd give it a shot. I'm glad I did, and I'm 100% happy with the 1545 chips sound. I also like the GE5670W tubes. I just bought 20 of them for $100. Ran them thru the tube tester, and they all measured very good...

    This is nothing new, and is somewhat old. I bought a used MHDT Canary DAC. I'm somewhat shocked at how Analog it sounds. I thought my Ares II was good, but for as close to analog sound, this Canary smokes it. Did a blind AB test with 2 friends and my wife, all agreed the Canary was better. I...
