Just re-read your question, the PYST cables are very short (for stacking) any reasonable quality rca interconnect will do you fine. You might want to consider a better quality cable if you have a long run though.

Only comes with power cable, you can order some nice cables direct from Schiit (PYST).

I use them with TV shows and movies via XBMC all the time, sounds great!

I have I use when I game, it's FAR better quality than most headsets too, and you don't lose the sound you love from your existing cans.

I'd recommend you find a pair of heaphones that you like, then add this:   http://www.modmic.com/   The majority of headsets (with built in mic) are mediocre at best when it comes to music listening.

Works perfectly for me using jriver event output.

I can confirm that the new driver supports WASAPI event mode.

Just a quick heads up to the Schitt owners on head-fi. Schitt has posted new drivers for the Gungnir and Bifrost (v1.03). I can confirm that these drivers DO support WASAPI-Event unlike the prior version. This should improve performance and error resistance under Windows 7/8. Also for those that...

schitt.com has some "new" USB drivers listed, link is broken at this time, but perhaps we'll be seeing support for WASAPI "event mode"?

Not implying your discomfort isn't legit, but I have found the LCD-3 to be incredibly comfortable. Especially comparing it against the LCD-2 and the Hifiman HE-500. As suggested you might try the optional ear pad,but my understanding is that it is very similar to the leather in terms of softness.

Quote: I think you have hit one of my sensitivities on the head! I do find "overbearing" an issue for me, one of the reasons I've avoided the Senn HD800 by reputation. I have heard that the "uber" version of the bifrost definitely sounds better than the "stock" version, but I'm assuming the...

Quote: Ah, well that may be my misunderstanding after reading pages and pages of discussion.  The idea of a single box solution does appeal to me from a desk space perspective. Based on my research it appears I can acquire a conductor for around the same $ as the Schitt stack?  Damn, once...

After listening to my LCD-3s powered by Schitt Bifrost Uber/Lyr combo I am still very pleased, but I still yearn to hear what the solid state and balanced output of the Gungnir/Mjolnir combo can add to the experience.  In the under $2K price range can anyone recommend a better option for driving...

Just a quick note to introduce myself, a VERY happy new owner of a pair of LCD-3s! I previously owned the LCD 2.2s and have to echo the thoughts of many other members in saying the 3s are definitely worth the extra $.  They simply take everything the 2s do well and do it better. Absolutely...
