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

    Assuming an ambient temp of around 26C / 80F, are we talking single digit minutes, double digit minutes or hours to reach temperature stability?

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

    I've seen a couple of people post something along the lines of 'and the DAC should be left on all the time because mumble'. Can someone explain why DAC's should be left on all the time, and if this is subjective or objective (or both)?

    Re Schiit offering financing... I think Schiit offering financing runs contra to their central message. I.e. Our entry level stuff might be all you ever need, we don't need to up sell you.

    A multibit DAC upgrade to Jot would be nice

    +1. Negotiating better international shipping rates would be awesome.

    I'd love to see a Schiit AM/FM DAB+ Radio. Steaming freely available, over the air content schiits me to tears.

    Aye, 100% agree. I use dbPowerAmp to rip to FLAC (for home) and MP3 (for phone). As it can rip to both formats at once, this works well.

    Audiophile confessions: Much to the amusement of my friends and family, I still buy CD's, although I don't listen to them. I rip the CD, and stream from a NAS or phone. Owning the music is important to me, and I like reading the booklet. I also subscribe to Spotify, but that's mostly to...

    I'd rather wait for a dock. Then it's one cable between the MBP and the dock, and monitors + schiit stack etc (and power!) off the dock.

    Curious nerd question. Are the sources / controllers for each Schiit station Microsoft Surface tablets?   And does each tablet have music stored locally, or are you serving music from a shared location?   One of the things I love about the Surface tablet is that it is  'just a PC', so...

      Cheers :D   I hate the thought of steaming radio over the internet, when I get it over the air for free. I'm on 4mb ADSL, so streaming radio has an impact on my browsing experience, and constant buffering is irritating as hell.   Plus the radio receiver in the Tivoli is top notch.

    I'm looking at adding a Tivolo Model 1 (https://www.tivoliaudio.com.au/products/model-one-radio-classic) as a source to my stack. The output is already analog. What's the best way to connect this to my Asgard 2 + Bifrost?

      This is currently a huge issue for me. I'm interested in how you got off the wave if you'd care to elaborate?

    Given this thread is full of lessons learned in business told through Schiits journey, I wanted to share something stupid I did recently.   A while ago @Jason posted a chapter that posed the question "What’s the one thing you dislike most about your current audio system?"   My response got...

    @watchnerd it's the car that puts a smile on your face every time you drive. For me, that would be an MX5 (Miata), or a Mini Cooper S.

    I'd like an 'hours on' odometer/counter made from nixie tubes. Because bigger numbers.
