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

    10,000 days in the fire is long enough. You're going home.

    Try upping the ISO a little bit, then you can use a faster shutter speed

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

    I started buying Schiit before black was an option. The Hel is the only black thing I have, and that stands alone on my work desk, so it doesn't have to match anything. I'm really glad they made a Silver option for the MJ3, as I was unlikely to buy a black one.

    Now see, if you’d gotten a silver Freya, then the Gungnir would blend right in.

    Just get an Urd. Then you get a unison to spdif converter, adding a disc player for free /s

    I still use my Chtulu at work! I did drop it on the ground at one point and the cover came off, but duct tape does a good job of keeping it together, and letting it power my Eitr, Modi Multibit, Loki, Magni stack

    Yeah, I had planned at some point to do Analog 2, but I guess my chance is passed on that one. I did get the impression that with the firmware upgrades the analog 1 was improved in performance as well, and as long as you're not trying to drive low impedance devices there was less tangible...

    Tomorrow I will be riding my fat bike in tne coldest temps I’ve done so far. It will be 7 F or -14 C in tne morning . I’ve not ridden below 10 F so far, but I’ve purchased ski goggles since then, so I hope to not have frozen eyes.

    I’m sorry to hear that as well. I have loved my Magnepan speakers for many years. My recent addition of Schiit Tyrs to drive them has only made them better.

    Why was this statement not carried through to the specs for the Mjolnir 3?

    Oh, I forgot, now I have to figure out how to arrange the three remotes into a Triforce

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

    Happy new year! Got my New Year’s GS2 to go with my Christmas Urd. Still don’t have the USB-C cables to test out the USB I/O on the Urd, but using Unison on my Mac mini, AES/ESB on the Urd, Optical on the TV, and Coax on the Blu Ray. I should hook up my Allo digione on the BNC just to have...

    Idk, it seems fine when I use my Ayre Codex or Chord Mojo. I think if it’s well-implemented it can be fine.

    For an endpoint, those are great. But if you want to have all the music stored there and have multi zones and EQ and DSP, then a Mac mini is where it’s at.

    Has anyone found a good AM/FM/HD Radio tuner? I see the Sangean HDT-20 as one option, but wondering if anyone here has found another that’s a better aesthetic match for a Silver Schiit 2-channel stack.

    I was thinking of making a triangular prism shaped block and attaching the 3 remotes to it. Then I’ll set it right next to my Pono player.

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

    I do of course also have a preamp, but I’m not going to use one DAC for my Roon endpoint and another for the TV. The preamp is for switching mainly between my Yggy and my Mani (and of course for volume adjustment) It’s only as of this Christmas that I have a unison USB hub, but that still...

    The other difference is my GS still has the Gen 5 USB. But since my headphone rig is fed by an Allo Digione with a BNC, the USB won’t be used there.

    The one I already have is the Yggy GS. I decided to get the GS2 rather than upgrading the GS, and will move the GS from my 2 channel setup to my headphone setup. I’d assume they should sound the same since they have the same generation of analog board.

    Getting a GS2 with Unison next week, so I’ll try Unison-Unison then. For now, it was simpler to leave my Mac Mini on the Gen 5 USB and put the Urd on coax. Will also try AEU/ESB. I have a couple USB C to B and A cables on order as well.

    Merry Schiitmas to all! This new CD player I got doesn’t download track names from the internet, so you all have to figure out what CD it is by number of tracks and running time.

    Having thrown the planars at the MJ3, I figured it was time to plug in the dynamic drivers. All single ended in this case, even though I have balanced cables for everything except the Grados. These are definitely not power hungry compared to the planars, as they’ll all bleed ears in low gain 1/4”

    This is why I got Qobuz and Roon. To listen to new stuff that 50-year-old me wouldn’t otherwise hear.

    I used to have a Freya OG and I recall that being hotter in tube mode than the MJ3 is. I don’t have it now to do a side by side since I replaced it with a Freya S
