I have a Schiit Modi 2 DAC and Magni 2 amp hooked up to my Thinkpad p14s AMD. The Modi 2 DAC plugs into my Thinkpad via USB, and the Magni 2 amp is connected to the Modi 2 DAC via RCA cables. My headphones (Sennheiser hd600) plug into the Magni 2 amp. In my sound settings on Ubuntu 20.04, I have...

I have a USB Schiit Modi 2, and when I can get it to recognize in Windows 10 (multiple machines), it works great with my Magni 2 and my HE-400s. The problem is that it doesn't recognize nearly 100% of the time. I get six or seven different kinds of errors, from it not being recognized at all, to...

I have a Hifiman HE-400i and want to get some better music out of it. I am currently using an Asus Xonar DGX(30$) and want a better dac/amp. The Schiit Stack will almost certainly have better sound quality, but the GSX has nice features and especially the 7.1 surround, which I hear is amazing...

I've been having problems with my Schiit Modi 2 for about a year now; my computer will not recognize the device except after maybe 10-20 minutes of unplugging and plugging back in the USB cable. I've read a lot of posts elsewhere on the internet by people with the same problem and with no...

Hello everyone ! I use HD800 + powered desktop 2.0 speakers (Edifier Luna Eclipse), currently with a SB ZxR. I am building a workstation that I will also use under Linux, so I will get rid of the ZxR (no linux drivers). I also want that unplugging the headphones enables the pre-amp output for...

Hi guys. I'm searching a good Headphone for my birthday and a DAC who will be connected to a Vinyl Player (I don't if it is the right name, my english is bad), for 450$. I want something pretty equilibrated, but with present Bass and Treble (More than mid, not rolled-off mid) like my earphones...

I’m looking for an AMP or DAC for my headphones. I’m looking at the Schiit Magni 2 and Modi 2 setup. My budget is those two combined, ~$240. I’m asking because my motherboard is the ASUS Crosshairs VI Hero which has a binned ALC 1220 DAC on there. It sounds impressively good as an onboard DAC so...

After a month of research I finally purchased Sennheiser HD600, now the problem as you may guess is to choose a good amp/dac for them, I'm going to connect them to PC only, some people said a internal sound card is much better since it is directly in contact with the mother board, others have...
