Call me crazy, but is anyone double checking their channels? I seem to have reversed headphone outs.
Anyone NOT have reversed headphone outputs from fv?

Maybe it was my browser, but I could t put it in my cart. It’s possible they aren’t sold out then.Schiit's web site let me put one in my cart. Not that I need another one......Perfectly content with the one I already have......But I also did not attempt to check out......
I’m itching to roll in a couple of 6SN7s, but I have no matched ones. I’m thinking that since they’re in separate channels, nothing catastrophic should happen even if they’re quite far off, but a left/right volume imbalance would probably be noticeable. I’m not really sure though, so I don’t know if I dare to try.
Try and report.
Iirc, Jason mentioned that they’re “cooked” for 24 hrs on racks before being shipped.Don't they burn fv in for like a week, or two? Seriously any burn in was done at the shop. Brains burn in. Electronics are served cooked.
checked mine…nope, not switched. It’s correctCall me crazy, but is anyone double checking their channels? I seem to have reversed headphone outs.

The Topping will work fine, though personally I’d get the new Bifrost 2/64 or pick up a 2nd hand Bifrost 2. Compared to the Topping (which IMHO) sounds slightly cool and soft, the BF2 sounds more alive (impactful), nuanced and warm. The BF2 also has a superior USB input if that’s how you connect to your source.Hi,
I have a Folkvangr on order, and currently have an Atom+ DAC. I like the DAC and am pretty sure it'll sound great with the Folkvangr. But, I'm also considering getting an Atom+ amp and moving the Atom+ DAC into another room to listen to. That would mean I'd need a second DAC for the Folkvangr. I have been eyeing the Topping D90SE. It looks like it gets really solid reviews. Even though it's balanced I believe I can still use the RCA out to the Folkvangr. Correct me if I'm wrong though. Would this DAC pair/sound good with this amp? Or, would I be better off with a Schiit, or other DAC?
Thanks
I just noticed from looking at your stack that you’ve got the Loki Max under your FV. The magnetic field generated by the massive transformer in the FV is likely interfering with the equalizer- Schiit discusses this in the FAQ for the Loki Max. You may want to move the equalizer or the FV.Schiit's web site let me put one in my cart.

I do not have reversed headphone out. Also verified my inputs are correct and they are.Call me crazy, but is anyone double checking their channels? I seem to have reversed headphone outs.

I added one to my cart. Did you select the options? Did you get a popup asking to confirm you understand the wait time? Maybe your browser is blocking it.Maybe it was my browser, but I could t put it in my cart. It’s possible they aren’t sold out then.
EDIT: still can’t add it to my cart. Shrug.
I'd be curious if it is interfering at all with the isolation pucks in between. They advise against stacking in many of their products for that reason but I've never had any issues with it but I will grant that the FV would have more potential to.I just noticed from looking at your stack that you’ve got the Loki Max under your FV.

Stupid me- I didn’t select the options. Doh!I added one to my cart. Did you select the options? Did you get a popup asking to confirm you understand the wait time? Maybe your browser is blocking it.
It’s a distance thing. The pucks do give you a little more distance so maybe. As I understand it, if there is interference it will manifest as a 60 hz hum. If you don’t hear anything you’re probably good.I'd be curious if it is interfering at all with the isolation pucks in between.

Would you mind sharing a comparison of the MJ2 and Folk?
I have an MJ2 and almost ordered a Folk. I am torn on going Folk, Ampsandsound, or DNA, if I even stay with a tube amp.

So I checked with my ZMF VC's and no hum present when turning the volume all the way up/gain in low and high...with nothing playing. Removed the pucks and let Folkvangr sit right next to Loki Max and no hum. Plugged in Utopia and still nothing...silence. Four hours later having a hard time shutting things down as Utopia/Folkvangr sounds like a match made in heaven......2:09 AM on a Monday morning. Good thing I don't have to go to work today.....It’s a distance thing. The pucks do give you a little more distance so maybe.
