I always find it an eye opening situation, when 1st world problems take on the character of chicken little was right all along.
This just seems appropriate…

<< snip snip>> Because of that, I've moved my Stax SR-Lambdas from my big stereo (with the post- @Jason Stoddard Theta electronics) to the living room and have been using them. << >>
I realize I am comparing electrostatics to planars... My bed room system has more weight, more slam, density, fullness, weight whatever adjective you want to throw at "fuller" sound. There is more authority there. Now, there's a delicacy and speed and airiness the Stax bring which can't be beat when it comes to baroque music or the chamber music I've been listening to lately (Shostakovich string quartets and Joly Braga-Santos chamber works). My Stax even sound pretty good with the new-to-me Led Zeppelin remasters I've been listening to. They are a little over-matched by the most energetic of their songs, though. They just aren't that convincing when some muscle is called for. I don't believe the issue is one of wattage, though. I can turn the volume knob with the result being my ears hurt, but the sound is still lacking in the way I've tried to describe. << >>

Pretty much all of us actually are interested and read Jason's posts. It looks like you haven't; here are few recent post covering the same issues you are complaining about:As you can clearly read. I did and Im not blaming them, Im going up the schiit fountain. Your anger is obviously preventing you from reading and comprehending a statement.
Well, OK, how about this:Not good enough I'm afraid. You have been here long enough to know better
I haven't tried my Loki with this particular stack... Hmmm. I have, though, considered taking the Loki out to the other hobby den when I get that all set up. It may have a big effect out there as basic as that system will be.I like what the Loki does for/with my Lambdas for rock'n'roll.
I actually appreciate this statement, and have read the link. The thing is, a email with actual information would be lovely, rather than having to make points and argue over the internet. A lot of us have other priorities in life with many factors and something as tiny as a bloody amp can make a lot of things better. The fact that receiving template responses really grinds my gears. I dont follow anything, so Im not going to be constantly looking for updates on forums in regards to something. My post was in fact to get a few laughs while venting. As people do on the internet, they get furious and believe companies are like cults. We must follow them to the edge of the world because you know they keep us alive, pay for our rents and so on. The fact that its been changed due to what ever reason at some point in time and getting the same template response each time is really really frustratingPretty much all of us actually are interested and read Jason's posts.

after reading those - you're welcome to get back to us!
Agreed! I've found when dealing with anyone (including their representatives), that basic respect and civility go very long way (yeah.. i'm "old"). I've been waiting months for a Yggy and despite the price, fully understand our shared situation! Appreciate the frustration, and look forward to your impressions when you DO receive your order!I actually appreciate this statement, and have read the link.

Let's not dwell on the negative here. (I say this despite being amused at the responses and the misunderstanding of Schiit's production line evidenced by the original posting)
Any idea how big Tyr is/gonna be? And how hot? Would one need to reside in Alaska to use it year round?
Also, I feel the need for an analog active preamplifier without tubes and with XLR (preferably balanced). Schiit refuses to resurrect the Freya S so I must look elsewhere. Any ideas? Not crazy expensive please, otherwise I'd go get some Boulder or MBL tech
