It's all about the harmonics, baby. It's what keeps life interesting.
I've just heard lots and lots of fundamental in the past couple of days. Where's that tube-y second harmonic? I'm starting to get nervous the thread is veering toward the measurements side. :scream::scream:

The watch appears to be a Hamilton Khaki automatic and that band works well with it.
Blue Jeans is a great company, and I am a fan of the Gungnir myself. Multibit for me.
Hamilton Khaki automatic indeed. These are my first Blue Jeans cables. I like my Gungnir and am happy I can now compare both delta-sigma and multi-bit at my leisure.

Depending on the fundamental, the second harmonic is often -50db so it's not usually as significant a contributor as believed. But the numbers reported by some people are often meaningless unless their instrument has been properly calibrated against a known standard.

Statistically speaking, or subjectively speaking? 😏

Any updates on the new Schiit Urd transport?
I've been checking the website for the past year or so, starting to think it will never be released...
Thank you!
Just wait one more week
And one more
And one more
And one more

It is a fine way to compare the two types since Schiit built both products. The Hamilton is also one of my choices for working in my shop along with a few Sectors and a couple Earnshaws.

Don't even get me started, @CowFish {{great handle btw; I'm thinking about wild herds of tilapia [herbivorous fish with rapid growth.... meh-flavoured meat... marinade helps] rampaging across the lake bottoms}}. I was getting myself wound-up about getting a new toy. An Urd would fit the bill. I was part of the beta program. I smoked 2 little Frankenstein boards (runaway overheating and burning plastic IS a thing). Now? Meh. I'll put my money into a speaker amp and some kind of weirdo floor-standing speakers (for my future low kW-h 2-channel installation on our retirement property). :ksc75smile:

I personally haven't Urd anything but quite frankly I'd imagine 'When It's Done' would be the best answer than any specific date.

Just remember "For the lack of one washer, we cannot ship the new [insert airplane, submarine, car, Urd] because the automated assembly system says "We don't have all of the parts"!!!

That is a possibility. But something's supposedly imminent, though I doubt it's Urd. If it is, it's more than a CD drive. What, who knows.

Did they decide .. nah. Schiit is a hardware company. There's no way.

So then you've worked with SAP. I always got a kick out of shipping stuff anyway and watching the SAP team go into crisis mode trying to figure out how to appease the software. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
