Lol I have no idea. The main collection is rock and roll with some jazz and very little classical. There is also folk and bluegrass etc. The collection goes from 1930’s till 2006 I believe.
The new switch with integrated fuse assembly make it easier to upgrade your fuses.I know that they are probably easier (or at least cheaper) to source and also likely make things a little easier to assemble, but…
The one thing that bugs me a tiny little bit about Folkvangr is the power switch. Even after a few months of use, I still find it a little "difficult" to locate it. Not actually difficult, of course, but it's just not the same effortless ease with which I always immediately find the old flip/toggle switches. In theory, the new integrated rocker switch should be easier to find because it's closer to the edge of the device AND immediately above the power cable, serving as a "landmark" of sorts for your grabby little fingers. But with the old toggle switches, I somehow never have to look, or even think. I just find them. Blindly. Immediately. And every single time.
The toggle switches also feel a lot more satisfying to use, what with their nice metallic *chonk* and all.
Seems like most newer Schiit gear (with internal transformers) might be getting that new rocker switch assembly. Tyr has it (although it doesn't bother me there since I never switch mine off), and based on the drawing Jason posted the other day, Urd seems to be getting them, too. Of the newer stuff, only Lyr still retained the old toggle switch. Maybe so Schiit could continue to use the same bottom chassis, I guess. Or because that newer power-socket-with-integrated-fuse-and-power-switch assembly is a little deeper and would not fit behind those two chunky transformers in Lyr? No idea.
Just to be clear: This isn't meant as a complaint by any means. It's just something I noticed. The new switches are completely fine. No reason to complain. My brain just seems to prefer the old ones a little more for no good reason.
I dunno… These new switches are just so… …so normal. …so mundane. …so consumer electronics like. …so completely unlike Schiit!
That's not maple, but it's very pretty. Hopefully won't degrade the sonics too much.Lol I have no idea. The main collection is rock and roll with some jazz and very little classical. There is also folk and bluegrass etc. The collection goes from 1930’s till 2006 I believe.
Being a glorious day here I am finishing shelves for an audio rack.
One can only hope.That's not maple, but it's very pretty. Hopefully won't degrade the sonics too much.
How about if I pretend to agree with you so you can get back to tending your still ??
I hope I can find all the pieces.
IIRC, it's only one piece. Or at least was. Pre-Finnegan.One can only hope.
This is cherry of course right after I applied the first layer of finish. I hope to have this rack done tomorrow if all goes well. This one may hold my Cary, turntable, and Freya +.
Oh and a Cary phono pre-amp that some kind hearted North Carolinian/Georgian lent me.
There appear to be tube sockets, I will huddle up with Finnegan and we will figure this out.IIRC, it's only one piece. Or at least was. Pre-Finnegan.
He has outgrown the tube breaking phase, so far today anyway. Tube cages help.
Put a pair of KT-90's in the octal sockets and see how it does.There appear to be tube sockets, I will huddle up with Finnegan and we will figure this out.
Will do.Put a pair of KT-90's in the octal sockets and see how it does.
After you diagnose the Superamp this should be child’s play.

. )What a lovely dog!My black, 10# mini Schnauzer does that on the black carpeting on the painted black stairs. One of these days he's going to get stepped on.
