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

    Great stuff! If I remember correctly, it was quite a fun and unusual experience for all.

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

    Oh for sure, they aren't prog. That was more a point to the catalogue and rock in general. Ooo thanks! I'll check your list, I have several there already but some are things I probably heard growing up but forgot about. The great thing about having an Yggy is finding old stuff and enjoying...

    No hum on my yggy A2, running the audio off 2-3 breakers, comingled with ps5, router, 5.1 pre/pro, rel bluetooth, and a 8 year old laptop with filthy usb ports. Not a ground loop issue? Rca or xlr make a difference?

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

    Totally agree on having standards, I'm sure we could rant for days on that subject but it would diminish the percentage of cat and dog photos. That would be bad. Funny you should mention prog rock, I'm just starting to poke around the old stuff myself so I can't estimate how complete the...

    Lots of great impressions for Eversolo streamers out there. Darko audio has a nice comparison with the Fiio. Good place to dive in. My brother got the entry level unit Eversolo A6, and he is running the digital out to a Weiss 204, through Mastersound tube gear to Verity Audio speakers...

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

    Agree with this heartily. I auditioned some SF speakers about 15y ago, and while they were lovely they struggled in a big room even with subs. My ~1000sqft of contiguous open listening space was a challenge. Room size and configuration kept me looking for quite a few years!

    Lol. Grats ! I hope you enjoy the A2, and good job having fun with hobby. I picked up my used A2 OG usb5 about 2 months ago and it is satisfying a lot of my expectations. My previous dac died last summer so I was enjoying the modi 3 I had on hand, but that 9 months ago too long for a proper...

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

    Dang. Something like 95% of all wine purchases are consumed with 24 hours, yours was no exception. I do believe this could have been avoided by purchasing a few cases. In my career I have lost bottles, pitched full barrels across the cellar, and seen a tanker truck sheer the valves off a...

    Sweet! Hmu via message if you get stuck, the program is robust and there is a learning curve. I can send screenshots of where I'm at feeding my yggy.

    Hi Chuy, I use JRiver media center in Windows to assist with volume control as I have too much gain otherwise. The internal volume setting in the program remaps the bits in 64 bit territory, attenuates the volume as you desire, then down converts to 24bit for output. Bypasses Windows...

    I’m waiting until somebody upgrades the electrons first, then I might spring for a new power cable if it is certified to stomp the old technology. /S Well built gear is all you need unless you have serious line issues. Old bathroom fans and some household items can be really dirty, but in that...

    Hello Everyone, I'm a long time audiophile who stumbled onto this forum by discovering the entertaining and informative discussions on Schiit audio. My PSAudio dac died this year, and I fortunately had a Modi 3 hanging around in the garage to keep the tunes rolling inside. Thankfully it's a...
