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

"sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence," is what Wilde said and with himself fully in mind. Some see it where it is not but it’s always nice to combine a negative with a positive. (Smiley Face)

Of course, how does one know whether or not Oscar Wilde's statement was itself sarcastic...

One may safely assume that most of what Wilde wrote was, indeed, sarcastic. :)

Big day yesterday—first working implementation of TI DSPs!

This will provide significant protection against supply chain disruption in DSPs for True Multibit products.

Cynical internal voice: and probably means Analog Devices will deliver right about the time the first TI boards come in. Because of course.

Could someone smarter than me elaborate about what @Jason Stoddard is referring to here? Is Schiit working on FPGA? And are these topics related?

I think they're specialized DSP chips, as opposed to the SHARC chips that thus far had been the only ones that could do MegaComboBurrito correctly. Could be wrong on that though, and maybe it is an FPGA.

This pix that Jason posted has to be one of my favorite Schiit Shots!

I must have understood it incorrectly, I thought the TI chips were suppose to replace the AD chips that were getting harder to procure.

@Jason Stoddard - To be clear, the DSP chip is separate from the D/A Conversion IC chip, no? From the yggy specs:

"Digital Filter: proprietary Schiit time- and frequency-domain optimized digital filter implemented on Analog Devices SHARC DSP processor"
"D/A Conversion IC: Analog Devices AD5791BRUZ x 4 (2 per channel, hardware balanced configuration)"

Guess I'm wondering if it's the SHARC chip you were talking about replacing here.
