I know the firm you're talking about. Something something silicon
.
Luckily I never put money down on them but do have 5 crowd funded audio products coming in shortly. Must admit they do have an addictive quality to them.

Lastly I am not a Schiit owner but thank you for your time and effort to publish this. Great reading material.

Fun to read - even for a non native speaker!
 
What I like best is your conclusion (or better said the wording: "A race to the bottom helps nobody. Don't benchmark yourself into mediocrity! "
 
That made it into my personal top ten !

  you had to bring up that "ass guard"

 yeah, true. And, BTW, "Vali" written with russian characters means "get the ****** out"...
 
 
P.S. The whole book (I mean published articles) is so cool - there are sense of hunor, professionalism and real life view combined in it - rare combination.

.........

Must be the weekend so here goes (yes, its a little out of step with the thread content so my apologies)...Vali in Indian mythology was the name of a powerful monkey king in the jungle who decimated his rivals pretty nonchalantly.... I am sure this is what Schiit had in mind right ?

Sounds like that monkey should chill out and upgrade his DAC to a Bifrost and get a nice cold Lassi,

Ummm..... He was a king; waiting for his Yggdrassil and Ragnarok

I would think that he was waiting for Shiva. Maybe the next Schiit should break tradition and be named, "Vishnu." Then the product announcement could be made in the Pink City and be blessed by an Elephant.
