Right, it's meaningless, which is why I threw out such an arbitrary number to begin with.  In no way was that a literal figure I was aiming for...seriously?  It was the concept of a perceived improvement in performance, not a statistical measurement.
 
I just want my rig to sound better, is that so wrong?

its also pretty meaningless, i really wish people would stop even trying to attribute such rigid percentile/incremental differences between random combinations of equipment, as heard by different people with different tastes

If that ever happened, this WHOLE website would shutdown as no one would care! Audio really is subjective. Everyone hears things entirely different and has different tastes in what they like. So really, there is no point in asking what anything sounds like, whether it be amps, DACs, cables, or headphones, as the only possible way to get any kind of useful answer to those kinds of questions is to buy whatever it is in question and try it yourself. Everything else is just hearsay.

Whoever came up with the corporate name Schiit Audio either was a genius or made the best happy coincidence ever.  The name alone seems to spark up an interesting potty humor discussion.
 
Even the names of the amps/dacs seem to bring random discussion.
 
Its marketing genius~

 

Yea it was a good name choice, I dont know about marketing genius, its been done many times before in every industry in existence, but it was still a goo route to go.

I just interpreted it to mean that he will be happy with a small improvement in sound quality.

Yup, something I've learnt in audio. Almost all my purchases have come after long waits. Though I have to say sometimes the waiting makes the final receiving of the product so much better. The only product in recent history that I bought without a pre-order is the Audez'e LCD-3s I think and of course they were recently "improved" so still kinda had to wait a bit for the final version.
