    Schiit Modius discussion - $199 balanced AK4493 DAC

    I would imagine you would do some damage to your equipment that way. XLR is 4v as you point out but se is only 2v. My advice would be to go to the Schitt website and purchase the Schitt Sys which would take your se output and split it into two seperate se outputs controllable with the flick of a...

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

    Well, as I sit here listening to my MM2 that just arrived a couple hours ago, I am pondering how to put into words what I am hearing. I am a Schitthead through and through as I have had many a piece of Schitt through the past 4 or so years. The original MM among them. I just wish that looking...

    Your experience will differ because you hear things differently. Lets also not forget that everyones chain probably isnt the same, the quality of the music (redbook audio, Mp3's, WMA etc etc) not to mention masterings vary wildy. Then you have the acoustics of the room your in for speakers. Then...

    Ichos, again, thank you for your review! It was much appreciated. I don't claim to be ultra knowlegable on anything, but I have been in this hobby for awhile now and have been through many pieces of gear from low end dacs to high end dacs (currently Yggdrasil LIM) as well as Amps ranging from...

    Great review! I presently have an HD800's and love 'em. Some headphones are good all-rounders and sound good on just about anything. This is a headphone where all parts of your headphone system (Amp, Dac etc) (system synergy) are very important in order to maximize the benefit of this headphone...

    Comment by 'Soundmancan' on listing 'Schiit Yggdrasil LiM (Less is More) and GS'

    Great price for a great DAC(s)! If I didn't already purchase an Yggy Lim for myself I would jump all over this. GLWTS!

    Hey, as far as double amping goes, you can do whatever you want. That's your call. If you want to continue using the HD600's for gaming, that's your call too. You do whatever is good for YOUR situation. I am an audio guy so I have a few different toys laying around and I have a choice. But for...

    Hi, it so happens that I have the Drop PC38x, HD600, GSX 1000 so I was able to do a direct comparison for you. Obviously, it goes without saying that this is just my opinion and you have to do whats best for your use case. I have been a gamer for a long time, and at one point, got sucked into...

    Mad Lust Envy's Headphone Gaming Guide: (8/18/2022: iFi GO Blu Review Added)

    I agree with MLE's assessment above. The Ad700x's have been used by gamers and praised for their ability to hear footsteps as well as a large(ish) soundstage. I would personally forego the use of any 3rd party software or surround sound. I have found these to be a detriment to the stereo audio...

    Hi! Great review and as an Vali 2+ owner as well as a Jot 2 owner, I agree with your assessment. Although during the review you refer to the Modius, did you mean to refer to the Magnius?

    Schiit Jotunheim 2 - Impressions Thread

    Ok, but when you post something on here, tagging my post, then inferring, through your little anecdote, that the amp broke because of something I did, I am gonna get pissed. I mean the amp is pretty simple to operate, plug in headphone, unplug headphone and adjust volume if need be. Im sorry if...
