Two pandemic years later, yes I'm still using mine and it sounds great. Some of the commenters mention warm full bass which this certainly has and I like. I wonder if the 5 ohm output impedance is a factor here? Overall the warm and smooth sound makes headphone listening a joy.

Yeah the stock AAA One has plenty of gain and clarity but a bit harsh. I can imagine a clean LPS would be a worthy addition.

Whew. time for a dummy plug in the other jack?

I would say definitely. I haven't had any build quality problems. My pair (900s) cost considerably more than $75. They sound great.

The m900 does not work as an amp only; there's no analog input. It's USB or toslink input only. Converting analog to digital input, I think the sound quality would be largely determined by the A-D stage. RCA's are variable analog out only, following the volume control.

I currently use the Benchmark DAC1 HDR as my main system DAC and the Grace m9xx as my office DAC. The Benchmark is a bit cleaner and more clinical, the Grace ever so slightly more grainy and colored. I think these differences hold when comparing the Grace m902 to Benchmark as well. Benchmark's...

I think Roger meant "extremely low Output impedance." That is what's important for neutral, uncolored sound. Higher output impedance amps can actually react with the headphone load to color the sound. Not as big a deal with the high 300 ohm impedance HD650's, but still.. The Grace is an...

The 900s are unibody construction which seems to have remedied the problems of the original 900. I haven't had any problems with mine, apart from needing to use the black 3-pin cable with non-phone sources. I purchased from Massdrop last fall. I do treat them gently; they live in a zippered...

Replying to this old post in case it helps others: I had this issue of hollow sound while using the blue 4-conductor cable in a non-phone device. Seems that in that setup, the 4 plug contacts cause the signal to get sent to the earphones out of phase, which cancels the bass and makes music...

I tried the Asgard and sent it back pretty much right away. No warmth; too brittle sounding for my taste. I love the little Grace DAC/amp. It's a great design, very well thought out functionality, and a great value at the price. It can easily compete against units costing double. And yes, the...

While this post is several months old, my reply may be helpful for others: I bought a Musical Fidelity X-Can V3 off C-List a few days after I received a brand new Schiit Asgard. The Musical Fidelity has Electro-Harmonix 6922 Gold Pins installed, but is otherwise stock. I found the Asgard to be...

That was interesting. I have sent the loaner I received along to the next participant. Will try to make time to post a brief review soon. Have fun!   cheers.

Thanks Katun. Based on the page 1 list, that's the one I received. First listen points to fun times this week.   Cheers.

I would like to join the PM-3 loaner program. I agree to the terms and conditions of the program. I look forward to participating! cheers.
