    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

    I just checked this, and I don't decern any buzz from any of the outputs, using the HE1000 Stealth.

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Atticus has been serving as my work headphone lately, so I'm getting to listen to them a lot more. I built a sweet mid-fi setup for my desk at work, and the synergy is so delightful and euphonic. Cayin N5ii > Mojo 2 > Nitsch Pietus Maximus > Atticus

    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

    Don't want to open a can of worms here, but could be the cable. Less pure copper. Can you give us more details about the headphone and the different cables/adapters you may be using?

    That's one thing which won't be happening in my future. Thanks for the detailed write-up, though.

    This vibes with my soul. I used to prefer a heavier lean towards warmth, and I certainly can still enjoy that, but my ideal sig has evolved into one which is ever so slightly warm in the mids, with healthy bass shelf, and smooth, extended treble, just enough to bring in plenty of detail and air...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    I'm very impressed by the quality of the Mojo 2 feeding into the Pietus Maximus. FAR outperforms the Cayin N6ii with E01 module, which is a Pro Sabre chip and Class A amp, that I was using as a source before. Absolutely fantastic sound. So clean, so dynamic. The perfect source for a warm amp...

    Going from Hugo 2 to R2R - what will I gain?

    Check out the Hugo TT 2. Desktop variant. That I believe will be my upgrade from the Bifrost 2/64. Hopefully next year.

    The (Un)Official Amp Thread For ZMF Headphones

    Can confirm, for a killer mid-fi setup, the Nitsch Pietus Maximus makes the ZMF Attiucs VERY happy, which makes me VERY VERY happy. :D

    Show us your Head-Fi station at it's current state. No old pictures please...

    That's my kind of listening corner! I'd happily take it. Next thing you know, they'll see how sweet a spot it is, and demand you move again. :D

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Pretty sure I have it set to 2V, and indeed, it's more than enough for the Pietus Maximus. Thanks for the help, everyone!

    NITSCH x Schiit Pietus Maximus Release/Impressions Thread

    All setup and sounding great. 2V is more than enough. lol. I was worried about that, but no longer. I need to run at Medium Gain with 2v. :) PS. The volume pot in the picture is not where I'm using it now. Just to clarify. ;)

    NITSCH x Schiit Pietus Maximus Release/Impressions Thread

    I looked through the documentation, but couldn't find the answer to this, so: How many volts is PieMax capable of taking in from a preamp before clipping? Is it the normal 2v, or the Chord favorite, 3v? My Mojo 2 just came in, and I'm trying to figure out how best to set it up when I get into...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Just got my first Chord product in the mail from the Classifieds. The Mojo 2! I plan to use as a pre-amp to the Nitsch Pietus Maximus, for my listening station at work. I can't find anything in the documentation which explains how to set it to line-out, or at least what volume would be good...
