Hi, I am investigating some HDMI audio related issues. May I know which Schiit DACs (current or legacy) can take in optical/coaxial signals at 32khz sample rate instead of the usual 44.1khz or 48khz?

Welp, I forgot Schiitalker existed and decided to try

Turns out all DACs by Schiit have a minimum of 16bit/44.1KHz; if somehow your HDMI output gives you 32KHz, you are pretty much hosed

One of my few audio regrets is that I didn't have the extra funds to buy @FLTWS MJ2 when I bought one of his yggys... I inquired about the MJ2 a month later, but it had been sold...some guy on here loved his MJ2 so much he needed a backup...

oh well, maybe someday

Seriously? What a nut job that guy must be…

@Rensek -- Maybe ACP will be willing to sell his backup MJ2 for $3000 now that he has a MJ3?

Come on, now. We're among friends here. $2,750. ;p

Even if/when I get a MJ3 I wouldn't part with my MJ2 ... not even for $3000 !

 

[Ripper2860]

Even if you had 2 of them?

Wait, his earbuds plugged in??? Not possible with an iPhone 15 (most phones in the last 5 years have no headphone jack).

Edit: oh, I guess you mean with a headphone dongle in the USB port.

Yup.

Geeez. Backup tubes are socially and morally acceptable. Backup amps? That's just hoarding, man. I agree with the others that you should sell the backup to @Rensek for $4000.

Cheeseless Crust, that inflation is harsh man!

Inquiring minds ask why 2 headphone amps next to each other? Two people listening at the same time?

I cannot answer for @ArmchairPhilosopher , but for me it's because Gungnir has 3x outputs
So depending on mood, genre, the direction of the wind, whatever, I'll flip between different headphones and/or amps (tube, solid state, or hybrid) throughout the day - one head, with many listening options to pump into it

The ultimate dual mono set up?

As the preppers always say, "Two is one and one is none."

On delivery services...

My last Schiit Audio order was made last Tue evening and I chose USPS Priority Mail (3 day). Schiit shipped Wed morning.

The order has been sitting in USPS docks since Wed. It went from Corpus Christi, to Austin to Dallas. It left Dallas today (Friday afternoon). 3 days are gone, so much for USPS Priority delivery. Hopefully it will be delivered a couple of States West on Monday.
