Very impressive. A few questions though, if you feel like answering them:
1) How the hell do you do this for only $1699? This appears to be more complicated (but better) than a lot of the NAD amplifiers that are $4,000, plus the usual Schiit that it looks way better and is better built. Plus you guys said you're making these to order (makes sense, although apparently a ton of people want one), so you're not getting the bulk manufacturing savings.
2) Whenever you add in more software, as you said, you open up the product to more potential issues. Do you guys have any plans of fixing shipped Ragnaroks (not the beta ones) if you guys find a bug months or years down the road?
3) When a prototype goes bad does smoke literally come out of it? I'm assuming you have fire extinguishers to put out the fires?
I'm glad to see that Schiit considers endgame $1699 and not $1000000000000000 like some other brands. That way serious audiophiles who have space for this can actually get their hands on it.
