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

[Baldr]

Is this a DAC we're talking about?

 
No...
not per se
Completely different purpose

I like you - you're a bigger tease than Jason.

External DSD to PCM converter with passthrough that can be added to existing audio chain in order to add DSD decoding without spending millions of dollars on a DSD-capable DAC?

From Jason in the Last chapter
 
" with Loki being the least popular product we’d ever introduced, well, there you go. It took us three years to sell the first and only run of Lokis. Never again."
 

Loki was a DSD DAC
 
Then There was This.

From Jason in the Last chapter
 
"When it was clear we’d finally sell out the first run of Lokis—almost 3 years after the introduction—I went to Mike and said, jokingly, “It’s time for you to get working on Loki 2.” His response was unprintable in a family magazine."

What else is there?  ADC?  Not seeing anything obvious here.

Whatever it is, my wallet is already hiding under the sofa...

I think Mike will approve of me disambiguating The Gadget a bit, if for no other reason than to salve any consternation about "hey, wait a minute, I just bought a Yggy/Gumby/Bimby, are you guys working on something else?"
 
1. It is not a DAC.
2. It is not an ADC.
3. It is not a superultramegaWyrd.
4. It is not a DSD combobulator.
5. It is not a disk spinner.
6. It is not a server.
 
It is, however, a digital product. Beyond that, I can't say.

A speaker and room correction processor (think DEQX) with Mike's secret sauce would be awesome!

 

[bixby]

I love it, "a digital tone control joystick"
 
that will solve everyone's nervosa for the perfect sound.
 
thanks guys 

 

 

[Eee Pee]

I was all like, oh sweet, a killer phono amp in a Gungnir chassis with balanced outs for my Mjolnir!

It is, however, a digital product.

Poop.

 

[goozy]

Plug in ADA DSP module would be cool.

I'd go for something with DEQXeque functionality -- did just get a Yggy and I'm not breaking that set-up or paying DEQX prices.  I did look into it a bit.

I think we're finally getting our Schiit USB-SPDIF converter.

The only other thing it could be is some sort of class D amp but there are some really good inexpensive (Pascal and Anaview module) class D amps in the marketplace now.

False.
