    Maverick Audio Tubemagic A1 & D2 Stack vs Schiit Asgard 2 & Bifrost Stack

    After having a full tower desktop for four years, I've finally upgraded it to a mini-ITX form factor. It's great and all besides the audio (only one PCI-E slot which I'm using for my graphics card). Coming from my Auzentech X-Fi Forte, everything sounds awful so I'm now in the market for an amp...

    I A/B tested a Schiit Asgard and a Schiit Valhalla today - Very surprising results

    I could not tell them apart at all.  Based on everything I've read about tubes and tube amps, I found this to be incredibly surprising.  I built an A/B switchbox for comparing source components and have run a couple of tests.  I'm using a rockboxed iPod classic with FLAC files, and a pair of...

    DT 990s and the Schiit Asgard 2?

    Due to the recent price drop of the DT-990 250 ohm Pros, I am seriously considering picking up a pair. However, I have no way of knowing how good it will sound on my setup, as I have only ever listened to them at a meet. Can anyone tell me a bit about how it sounds with the Schiit Asgard 2? Thanks!

    Can you dudes recommend me audiophile speakers?

    I haven't used speakers in a decade and a half and at that time I didn't even know the word audiophile existed so I didn't know how amazing music can sound.  Right now I have the Asgard 2 and Uber Bifrost with the HE 500 and been using that combination for months now but feel like going back to...

    ~$200-$300 DACs to go along with the Schiit Asgard 2

    I've been looking at the Schiit Asgard 2 for my Mad Dogs w/ Alpha Pads, and I need a nice DAC that can plug into my computer via USB. I looked at the Bifrost, but apparently it didn't come with USB, and is a bit too expensive. Are there any other DACs that I could use in the place of the Bifrost...

    $1k Budget for DAC & Amp for Mr. Speakers Mad Dogs (& Alpha Dogs)

    This is a followup post to the "$500 budget for Mag Dogs" thread someone else posted. They settled on a Schiit Bitfrost and Asgard 2.   I currently have the Mad Dog's with the Schiit stack and probably will get the Alpha Dog's once reviews start coming in (and possible offered in another...

    WA2 vs Valhalla 2 vs Crack Speedball

    I am really itching for a WA2 but have a Valhalla 2 and will be building a Crack with Speedball this week.   I've had a WA2 in the cart but can't quite seem to push the buy button.   I'll be using T1 and HD800 mainly.   I love the multiple inputs of the WA2 but if there isn't a huge leap...

    Need Help Connecting Speakers to Computer

    Hi guys I am a noob to audio stuff.  I have these two Kenwood speakers in my basement that have not had much use.  I am planning on building a new computer and was going to get new speakers, but since I have these I might as well put them to use and save some cash.  The model #s of the speakers...

    Need help picking an amp

    Hi, I'm looking for an amp to pair with my HE-400, Fidelio X1, and Q701. I am currently using a X3 to drive them, but I want a real desktop rig. My budget for the amp is $200 but I would be willing to go over a bit if the performance is worth it. I've heard that the M-Stage pairs well with these...

    Desktop DAC/AMP Combos for the Mad Dogs w/ Alpha Pads?

    I've been using the FiiO E09K/E17 with my Mad Dogs w/ Alpha Pads and it sounds good, but I know that I can do better if I am willing to spend a bit more. For now, let's say my budget is $500 or less. What can you recommend for an amplifier and a DAC? Also, size is a bit of a constraint seeing as...
