Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

[Pondoro]

Have a happy Thanksgiving, wherever you are! My wife and daughter decided to watch the Thanksgiving Day parade, lately these parades are more about famous musicians than marching. I was called to "fix the sound." I asked what was the matter? My daughter said, "It sounds like they are in a tunnel", my wife said, "I think the sound is coming out of the TV." They were both correct, several hundreds of dollars worth of stereo equipment was present but being ignored. Of course I fixed it. My wife's pained tone of voice when she said, "...out of the TV" proved that she understands.

If Margot Robbie is involved....hell yeah....

Every so often I hear, "You're not going to see that just because it has Margot Robbie, are you?"

if you like the sound of the MJ3, inquire at info@schiit.com about ordering a silver top for it.

don't even think about Wotan + spkr-to-xlr adapter cable for headphones unless you like the smell of smoldering HP drivers...

I love the sound but, as Jason admits, it's not the most practical of amps. I have a much smaller (slightly more finicky) amp that fits my lifestyle a little better.

A half-size MJ3, now that would be something!

Well it looks like a 1/2 sized Folkvangr (Valhalla 3) is on the horizon, so who knows what trickery Schiit will pull off in the future. I mean who saw FB coming?

* More than a week before it was officially announced anyway.

Just checking in with a little follow-up regarding my Yggy+ GS2 vs Gungnir 2 questions I asked a while back. Really appreciate all the answers last time.

The consensus was Yggy+ GS2 or bust and I've started to understand why but still have some good old questions if I may.

- Is Yggy+ the same, but different cards only? (GS2/LIM/MIB)
- Is it possible to upgrade for the new Multiform from GS2 in the future?
- Reading some impressions about a greyish background on the A1/A2 cards, any real concern?
- Also watched a review (think his name is Marv) where they said the Gungnir 2 was somewhere in the middle of the Yggy+ LIM and MIB. Any inputs on this?

Still leaning Yggy+ GS2 and think it's a nice way into the Yggdrasil world. That way I can upgrade when/if a new card like Multiform gets released. At the same time a LIM or MIB would maybe set and forget?

Thanks in advance and sorry for the rambling!
Happy Thanksgiving btw

Yiggy+ fully upgradeable.
I find the A1 card to be very musical, big and coherent - no backround issue at all

+1 to the above.

And I believe Jason has stated that they are working on a Multiform Yggy+ upgrade for sometime in the future.

+1 to the above.

And I believe Jason has stated that they are working on a Multiform Buggy+ upgrade for sometime in the future.

Is a "multiform buggy" one of those baby strollers that converts into a car seat?

DAMMIT! I HATE Autocorrect!

Marv posted a 2nd video where he and Lindsay change their minds, placing Gungnir 2 ahead of all Yggdrasil versions, at least for (his) speakers.

And that's part of why I don't like using abbreviations for Schiit product names.

 

[Ripper2860]

I hear ya, but I'm not a Norse god spelling bee champ so I'll take abbreviations when I can get them. That's likely the one category I would not pick on Jeopardy.

Retired to TN from CA 8 years now. Love it, and the move provided immense financial benefit. Lots of Floridians around here that tired of the hurricanes and all things outside that rust. I wish you the best at your new home, and safe travels to get there!

I looked at TN and it was much cheaper than FL, but I need the hotter climate for turtles. The property that I bought is 13 miles inland and not in a flood zone. The house also has a generator that can supply the whole house, and it has a buried Propane tank for two weeks. I have well water and a whole house RO filter so I can sit out the power outages and hunker down and Just listen to music while they repair the wires.

 

[turtlerod]

I sort of wish I'd waited a month or two.

I bought one more Tyr. I had two already for the front channels, so I bought one for the center speaker.

NASA knows we’re in deep……they just discovered a hidden secret city built by USA in 1959 under a glacier in Greenland that was abandoned in 1967 because of the accumulated weight of the glacier. Well they found it again sticking right out of the ground no ice at all. So good luck where you live, move. I don’t think it matters a smidge.

Interesting, didn't Jason state that the Yggdrasil MIB was still better than Gungnir 2 in the previous chapter? Granted like you said "at least for (his) speakers" Gungnir 2 is better.
