I just changed the sig few seconds agoHey, how does your 4Z go with the soloist? What gain/volume range do you tend to use? Any power amp mode?
The 4z will most properly arrive tomorrow. I will report once I have tested the 4z with the Soloist.

Schiit Jotunheim 2 is regularly compared to the Soloist. I've never heard owned the Jotunheim so I cannot speak to it.Any cheaper alternative to this amp ? I want something like this but it's too expensive for me. I'm ok with 4WPC 16ohm instead of 8WPC 16 ohm. I like the volume control and display of this unit.
It is not just the output power which makes the Soloist 3XP so incredible good.Any cheaper alternative to this amp ? I want something like this but it's too expensive for me. I'm ok with 4WPC 16ohm instead of 8WPC 16 ohm. I like the volume control and display of this unit.
I can see why Soloist is good. I would go for it if i had the budget. This is my favourite high end amp.
I'm looking for a cheaper alternative with the similar precise volume control and volume display. Jot2 doesn't have that. Maybe Gustard H16
I can vouch for the Jot 2. It's a nice amp. But no, it doesn't have a display. Like @Terr0rSandmann mentioned the Soloist is on a slightly higher level than the Jot 2.I can see why Soloist is good. I would go for it if i had the budget. This is my favourite high end amp.

According to ASR the DACs of the Jotunheim 2 and Asgard 3 are bad. Schiit stacks are supposed to be better than Jotunheim. Is there anybody who tested a Schiit stack (or only the amp) vs. Soloist? Btw. I am more interested in the Conductor 3XP. Any comparisons between that and some Schiit stacks?Schiit Jotunheim 2 is regularly compared to the Soloist.

The DAC cards are schiit.. but you could still use a jotenheim amp with a Schiit Delta sigma DAC, or bifrost or a DAC by another company.According to ASR the DACs of the Jotunheim 2 and Asgard 3 are bad.

Especially in the entry level range of amps I would rather focus on sound quality instead of having a digital display.I can see why Soloist is good. I would go for it if i had the budget. This is my favourite high end amp.

I do not have the cards for my Asgard 3 or Jot 2. I run the Jot 2 with a Bifrost 2, and the Asgard 3 through a Modi 3+. I just received my Soloist about 2 weeks ago, but so far I prefer the Soloist over the Jot 2.According to ASR the DACs of the Jotunheim 2 and Asgard 3 are bad.

Unfortunately sound quality is not quantifiable so i'm just focused on clean, powerful amp with a perfect channel matching feature and a screen to tell me where i'm at the volume scale. I discovered SMSL SH9 and Gustard H16 so far but i'm not fully satisfied with them. They seem a bit overpriced to be honest and SMSL blatantly lies about it's power capability.Especially in the entry level range of amps I would rather focus on sound quality instead of having a digital display.
Unfortunately nothing in that range will sound like the Soloist, the same way a Mazda MX3 won't perform like a Ferrari.
