I have a pair of them. They sound pretty spectacular. I also use the Comply Foam tips; they make a huge difference in overall isolation.

Yeah the foam tips were my favorite so far! How long of a break-in did yours need? I have to say they were pretty meh straight out of the box but I was kind of expecting that based on impressions I've read.

All of my IEM foam tips were good right from the get-go. No break-in needed.

What about the phone numbers (in NYC, decades ago) such as this?: [ME stands for the Melrose neighbourhood]

I remember my town was MA for Market. Got curious, found this https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/61116/why-did-old-phone-numbers-start-letters

And who can forget the original -- 4 finger death punch?

Has anyone done a comparison of the Ageir vs mono Gjallarhorn's? Just curious as to why there is interest with mono Gjallarhorn's I get it from a form factor as they might fit better in some setups that way. But curious in the sound quality and if there are differences.

Sounds like Aegir, frankly. Given the topology, makes sense to me!

Edit: i compared stereo to stereo, happy with both. Probably going to move GJ to my outdoor rig (with home depot specials - exciters on suspended ceiling panels and extruded styrofoam panels suspended from 3/4” pvc ). They sound really good with the 20W class D $12 chinesium thing that amazon provided, so I’m looking fwd to hearing GJ…

That's because they are Proper. <g>

So Schiit may say - ' Ihre Bestellung wurde versandt ' !! or more likely ' Ihre Bestellung wird in 2-3 Wochen verschickt ' spot the Nouns !!

I should have stated that a bit differently, I'm not concerned about loudness.

I'm concerned about depth, width, height, imaging, vocal and instrument separation between those parameters. control, tone, texture.

Im thinking/hoping a single g horn does that better than a single rekkar, and I hoping G horns in mono block will be even better yet. I believe someone stated a few weeks ago that G horn in mono block mode would push the speakers differentially through the balanced input as both positive and negative would be hot. Maybe I misunderstood that post.

Im looking to pair these with Bifrost 2 or Gumby and Freya S. Balanced all the way through.

Yep pretty much my train of thought too - I have a mint pair of Acoustic Energy Aegis 3 EVO's ( around 90 db efficient nominal 8 ohm ish ) that have not been used in 12-15 yrs and I'm torn between Vidar 2 or a G horn or two -to use with my gen 3 Bifrost multi and Saga - obviously I will be using both outputs on Saga to Bi- amp a pair of G-horns - one amp driving mid /hi and tother the low end !! -in a 12' x 15' room with moderate soft furnishings - any opinions would be welcome

Or 4x Rekkrs in Mono mode !! now there's a thought !!!

 

[Erratic Gravy]

I didn't see any problem with it. As you note, Schiit has no competing products and it's something that you could plug into a preamp if you wanted to.
.

Just tried - plugged into my Saga and the sound was very pleasant BUT my Bifrost Multi is an order of magnitude superior in all depts

This thread moves fast with posts so trying to catch up.

Just got my 11 Miata on the road after pulling it our of hibernation. It gets put away in Oct/Nov and back out in Mar/Apr depending on the snow. We had several late snowfalls this year in Milwaukee.

I always forget how fun it is to drive. It's great platform to upgrade. After a few simple modes springs/sway bars and header/exhaust it really changes the character if the car. Still has decent ride quality but significantly better handling and it pulls hard to the red line.

I enjoy driving low powered cars at the limit vs fast cars and barely proping the limit of them.

I've had it for 12 years and 67k and it's been the best car I've had with zero issues. Just do the simple maintenance and no issues. Just Zoom-Zoom well not the fastest as most mini vans are quicker but not many cars can touch the handling.

Seriously, keep up!
