Hi, I have the original Mjolnir, which has one set of XLRs (which I use with the Gungnir) and one set of RCAs. I would like to connect a turntable to the RCAs, but the problem is that the inputs are summed, not switched like the Mjolnir 2. The manual says to only use one set of input jacks at a...

Hi, I have had a pair of Audeze LCD-3 (pre-Fazor) headphones for a number of years that I use with a Mjolnir/Gungnir combo. While the sound is excellent, the size and weight make it uncomfortable for me to wear them for extended periods of time. In fact, I tend to gravitate towards using my...

Hi,   My XB-300's are getting a bit long in the tooth with the driver damaged on one side, and I'd like to replace them. Sadly, they aren't being made any longer. These are my throw around pair of headphones, and I'd like to replace them with something that can also be thrown around, is just...

Hi,   I just changed the hard drive and installed Windows 7 on an old HP HDX 16 which had been sitting around for a year and a half with Vista and probably thousands of viruses.   I installed the Schiit drivers, and when I use it with Spotify or the like, if I pause the music and turn the...

Hi!   I'm currently using the LCD-3 with the Gungnir/Mjolnir combo and I love it. The problem is there's an intermittent buzzing in the right channel that appears to come from my house's electricity and isn't Schiit's fault (they replaced the Mjolnir once). A hospital-grade transformer does...

Hi,   I installed Windows 7 to play around with and after doing so for a while I sure am glad I can just go back to my Mac. ^^   But, nevertheless, it IS fun to fiddle with, and I am using WASAPI in Foobar with my Gungnir. Now, the sample rate is changed automatically based on which song is...

Yes, I'm the first again! I thought it was really fun. Can't wait to see the pics and the time lapse movie!

Hi,   I am looking for a fairly small combo that I can use with my Retina MacBook Pro. I would like a very nice pair of portable headphones, as well as a small DAC and AMP (or all-in-one) to go along with it.   I have had many different systems, so I like to think my ears are fairly...

It sure was fun!!! A shout-out to Purrin- thanks again for reterminating the cable free of charge! Post your pictures, opinions and thoughts here.

Hi guys! I currently have an iMac to a Gungnir to a Bottlehead Crack to my HD650's. So I won a really nice balanced cable that I don't have yet, but I am wondering if the Mjolnir running fully balanced with the Gungnir and the 650s would be worth the improvement over the Bottlehead Crack. I...

Hi All, I bought a PS Audio DLIII a few weeks ago. I didn't like the idea of upsampling, but it sounded good. I also didn't like having to use optical, as the Mac only goes up to 96kHz. The USB on the DAC only went to 44.1/16. So I sold it and bought a Schiit Gungnir with USB. It has the...

   

Hi!   Is there any other Mac program that changes the sample rate automatically like Audirvana+? I would love to buy it, but I don't have the money right now!   I love that you don't have to manually select the sample rate-it does it for you!   Thanks! Ben

Well, I just got the DLIII on Friday, and, of course, I already have upgrade-itis.   Does anyone think the Schiit would be a noticeable improvment?   One thing I like is that if you get the USB card, I will have full 192kHz/24bit capability on my iMac, whereas with the optical on the PS...

The title pretty much sums it up!   I am looking to be able to use full 192kHz/24bit compatibility with my PS Audio Digital Link III, but the USB only offers 48/16 and while the optical offers 192/24, the iMac does not!   Talk about a conundrum!:D:D:D   So I am just looking for a...

It's only three months old, and it's in very good condition. An odd thing I've found is that when no audio is playing on my iMac, it unlocks itself and then goes to sleep, but not with Audirvana in hijack direct mode!!! Hmm...   What I am really here for is this:   I have it hooked up to...

Hi all,   I haven't been on here in quite a while, as I've been enjoying the antics over at Audiokarma.org lately.   The pads on my Yamaha HP2 orthodynamic headphones are beginning to fall apart, and I am wondering where to get replacement pads of a comparable size.   Does anyone...

...and I love it! The Crossfeed switch installed on mine makes a BIG difference! I feel like I'm cheating, though :). What other headphone amps have a Crossfeed switch? Thanks! Ben aka MacKat

I heard the Fournier yesterday with my HD650's, and loves it. How do these other ones compare? Any other suggestions? Ben aka MacKat

I want to have it sound better than my Fiio e9. Thanksz, Ben aka MacKat

So, my current rig is: Sony 2251/Black Widow tonearm/ Shure V15-V MR cartridge Channel Islands phono stage Fiio E9 Sennheiser HD650 headphones I tried the Fournier on someone's digital rig yesterday with my 650's. I really liked it, and I thought it sounded more analog than my vinyl solid state...

Ok, So I have a nice pair of old HD650's here that I bought on Head-Fi a while back. Lately, the connections on the cord have been intermittent, so I'm sorry to say I think the springs are failing. Also, the right spring buzzes along to the music. Small, but there. Any solutions? Thank you...

I got one of these for $15 in the summer of 2010. How does it compare to the D-33? It sounds great! Ben aka MacKat P.S. I'm over at AudioKarma a lot more, you head-fi'ers should check it out! Ben aka MacKat

Hello!   I'm sure none of you have noticed thy. I haven't been here very much at all lately.  I hAve been over at AudioKarma.  I still am here though, in the shadows, lurking. You see. The occasional post from me.   Thanks!   MacKat

Hi peeples,   I have a pair of Yamaha HP-2 orthodynamic headphones. I would like to recable them. Besides basic soldering tips, what is a good way to recable headphones? Advice on dampening them is also welcome.   Thanks a lot,   MacKat
