I'd put them side by side before I do a fan... Fan noises are annoying
That's how I have my amp & Mimby arranged too.I'd put them side by side before I do a fan... Fan noises are annoying
The Schiit dealer in my country offers a Schiit stand that's sized for the small components that provides some extra spacing in a stacked configuration. I don't have one myself, and I don't know where else it might be sold, but it might be worth looking into.I put it on top of my amp. The amp is not that hot so i guess its ok.
I might try something like a mini fan can cool my dac a little bit....
i understand this but mimby gets warm quite quickly and after 20-30 minutes its about 40-50 celsius so im worried this will harm the device in the future.That's how I have my amp & Mimby arranged too.
That's pretty darn hot, probably a good thing having the fan keeping it cooler.i understand this but mimby gets warm quite quickly and after 20-30 minutes its about 40-50 celsius so im worried this will harm the device in the future.
I bought a mini fan to cool it down, and now its about less than 30 celsius.
Modi multibit is in "B stock" again so I had to pull the trigger. For $200 thats 20% off. They have the Bifrost (G1 - multi, usb5) for $400 but I already own that one. I can't wait. It will replace the Modi 2U feeding an Asgard 2.
Hi
Can i usb other usb optical converter like topping d10 for modi multibit ?
Etir is quite expensive in my place and i can get topping d10 for less than half price of etir.
Not sure where to post this, but my modi multibit's coaxial input broke clean from the pcb. Rather than pay for repair I decided to DIY. I bought a neutrik rca jack and it fit beautifully into the chassis. The tricky part was figuring out which solder pad corresponded to signal and ground. The stock input has 3 solder pads, while standard mono rca has 2 pin. I figured one was just used to support the stock input jack to the pcb board. Once I figured out which was which, it was easy peasy. The new jack is very sturdy and doesn't wiggle like the stock jack. Schiit needs to make these jacks standard.
Is it worth the money to get the V2 firmware for the Modi Multibit? If I factor in shipping it would run me about $80.
I would say not worth that much. I bought the upgrade with my Asgard 3 so shipping was covered by the amp shipping cost. It does sound a bit better, but I didn't think it was night and day.
How do i know if my mimby is with upgraded firmware?I would say not worth that much. I bought the upgrade with my Asgard 3 so shipping was covered by the amp shipping cost. It does sound a bit better, but I didn't think it was night and day.
As far as I know, you need to peek inside and look if the ROM chip have a sticker with "MD218" on it.How do i know if my mimby is with upgraded firmware?
