Lyr 3 - The new Coherence™ and Continuity™ hybrid amplifier from Schiit - Impression & discussion thread
May 8, 2018 at 7:06 AM Post #856 of 3,350
Anyone running E-Mu Teak's on the Lyr 3?
Also the Oppo PM3's?
I'm just more and more into this amp and i'm about one finger away from pulling the trigger.
It seems like it's got the sound, quality and looks I want.

I wouldn’t worry about it honestly...if you bought from a reputable tube vendor online then your fine, and if they suck they’ll let you return them...if you bought on eBay, it’s a gamble regardless who you go through. There just isn’t anyone holding anyone accountable on eBay, and people can write what they want whether they tested something or not. If you did your research and the tubes look real, even if they’re not brand new they’ll be nice. Hopefully the guy u bought from has a good return policy if something doesn’t seem right to you, but I’m sure you’ll be fine.

Agree completely.

Truthfully neither one of those really need that much power and low gain woyld be enough or the vali 2 would be enough on low gain. The Lyr 3 is overkill. However they would sound great on the lyr 3.

I also own Hd 6XX and would like to get either Aeon's or LCD2C, so i'm trying to make this a bit future-proof.
Also, the fact that I can swap tubes and a tad on sound signature is something that interests me immensely.

Hey guys I currently have the Fostex HP-A3 Amp/Dac and I was thinking about upgrading it.

Would the Eitr + Mumby + Lyr 3 be a good upgrade from the Fostex?

I have the Sennheiser HD700 and Shure SRH1540 headphones.

Thanks so much for your response!

Well in that case yes it is a great upgrade for the hd6xx as well as either the Aeon or the Lcd.

sigh my Mimby is still backordered from the 5/3/18 due to no Australian Wallmarts and Schiit doesn't respond to emails.
I ordered the Lyr 3 through the US website last Thursday and still no news on shipping... maybe they’re pretty busy with orders... I’ve emailed them this morning, I’ll post updates if they say something :)

I ordered last Thursday aswell, weird they don't send emails when delay with orders. They do send emails when they ship your item tho.
They replied me... they said that there are some problems with parts and the shipment will be in few weeks... I don’t know for any other product thow...

...due to no Australian Wallmarts

I consider that an extremely positive attribute of your country. :slight_smile:

Ordered mine May 2, shipped May 4 while their rep told me the 230V will be delayed for a few weeks. That was fast.
