Since I broke up with my ex-fiancee last fall, I've come to like Durex Feel Ultra Thin. :L3000:

Jason has said on another site (can't mention here) that Sol will be coming "later this year".

He also talked recently in an interview on Headphonia where he said:

"We have a product coming out shortly that includes both a new tube hybrid topology and a new type of output stage."
​
This is almost definitely one of the products being released. Apparently it will not super expensive either.

The other product? Who knows. Possibly the Gadget finally. But I am going bet it will not be another Analog 2 DAC considering the backlog of Yggy upgrades currently, and the absence of Mike. But I would be happily mistaken if it was an A2 Gumby :)

Ahh, thanks for the clarification, so no Sol yet. I'll assume that other unnamed site is Uber Great Sound Cousins. :beerchug:

Personally, this will be the first time I'm not super excited about a new Schiit release, mainly due to the fact -at least to me- they already have covered all the bases when it comes to product categories. Maybe a CD Transport is one of the still missing ones that would constitute a big surprise, a 2-ch Class A Amp outputting a modest amount of Watts is another one, and that's it for me, I can't think of anything else, since they have already say "never" to a streaming device and "not in the feasible future" when it comes to transducers, due to a lack of expertise/know how that would allows them to make something possessing that Schiit Sparkle (what a new term) that would leave the competition in the dust.

You're right about The Gadget being a possibility this time, though I can't remember Mike posting anything relevant (during the last month or so) about it that could indicate they've overcome the issues that caused its delay back when everyone expected it.

Do we have a date for this new release, like tomorrow or it's more like next friday? (I guess I'm getting excited :o2smile:)

My situation is the opposite. I can easily see a dozen WiFi names, there are high tension lines less than a mile away. And that transformer thingy is in my front yard but appears to do me no good. ;-(

Well, it's not going to filter much RMI/EMI but it should do a great job on line noise. High tension lines can really radiate a bunch of interference. Not to rub it in but the main power lines to the xformer are buried too.

Yes, it’s “Freedom Highway”, not Road. I think ORT copied my mistake, which I made due to my being English.
Here, I drive my car down the road, not my automobile down the highway... :)
