In this case I guess you should never again trust a single piece of hardware coming from Schiit. As it happens Schiit headquarters is infested with "subjectivists" (some corrupted former "objectivists"), who firmly believe in no DBT'ing (no blindfolds or anything), use human ears in sighted conditions for final fine-tuning of their devices, obstinately refuse to release a DAC/amp combo for fear of infesting each other with GHz noise (and curtly point you to buying a Modi/Magni duo, which are shielded from each other very nicely, thank you), won't add in displays for much the same reasons, firmly believe that published specs are largely uncorrelated with sonic performance, consistently tout the 3D holographic soundstage/imaging of their DACs, believe that sonic performance in the audible band is related to a stable FR outside the audible band, and will even claim to hear differences between their DACs, amps and, yes!, between tubes and SS gear. Who knows what other audiophile voodoo incantations they throw at their devices...
