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

Completely agree with you my friend.

It's easy to go back and dig up all the posts where the silver option was flat out denied as a possibility.

Those of us supporting the first run have had the pleasure of seeing 180-degree pivots on both the limited production and silver tops...and sorry, it leaves a bad taste.

Dont get me wrong, I'm thrilled about the pivots for what it means for Mj3's future.

However, doing the right thing for those of us first-run silver-seekers shouldn't be low-to-zero priority.
I expect we'll be able to accommodate you. Just contact us and we'll work something out. Reference this post if you get resistance.

Bingo. It's within margin. I didn't think it would be at first. But who knows? Maybe it is the new grain. Maybe it's the different anodize. Maybe I was (gasp) wrong.
Still gonna want a fan if you like it at 30 degrees C in your house.
You could always do what we have to do in some extreme cases where the thermal sinks are non-existent or ineffective: use 250C mil-spec wire and components and Kapton PCBs.

Cats will love it...

It may not be intentional, but the repeated regurgitation of what other companies and designers think is getting a bit old. This is the Schiit Happened thread. It's like going into Dave's Bar and telling him what Dan's Pub thinks.

If you have found your own One True Path, perhaps best to stick to it. We're gonna continue doing what we do, which includes a wide range of feedback, no-feedback, some-feedback, weird-feedback, current-feedback, feedforward, single ended, balanced, differential, not differential, and other techniques. We started with 100% no overall feedback—Asgard, Valhalla, Lyr, Mjolnir--hell, none of our amps had feedback baked into them until Magni. And we've already done a device so that measures so horrifyingly that it shocked me (Folkvangr). But bad measurements are not an end to themselves, same as good measurements.

Time for a chapter on Feedback, Good Bad and Ugly, like we did with balanced and Class A and discrete. I'll get to that eventually.
Thank you!

Not viable in those cases, I'm afraid.
I know you're trying to stick with unique names lately, but please tell me there is some chance of a Hel-lacious?

We had a prototype tagged as "Hel Yeah" for a while. Not sure if that one will make it to production, though.

Just doo doo brown
Don't tempt me.
Cool idea for a "special edition" — comes with an air freshener in the box and this logo printed on top instead of the usual "S"…

…for final run products before they close up shop. 😁
