Very plenty of bass with LCD-3, and I have had Lyr. I think there is more here.

Thing is, when it comes to how much bass you have (or other aspects of sound) you are going to have a much bigger impact on this in your choice of headphones, than in your amp.
 

 
100% true.
 
For some reason that I don't understand, people seem to forget that transducers are the biggest variable in the audio chain (both front and back, ie. microphones to headphones / speakers).

Just asking because my previous amp had a little more than the jot, and i may have gotten used to it because i find the jot lacking on the low end in oomph and a little strident in the highs. This is with a mad dog pro, zmf vibro mk2 and hd650, all of which are considered dark.

This may not be because of more or less bass, but differences in damping factor.
 
Higher damping factor leads to more driver control (faster stops and starts), which can lead to "tighter" bass which some might perceive as "less".  When in reality lower damping factor can just be more driver overhang.

that makes sense, thank you

Just got my jot w/dac. Sounds great with my edition x v2. I prefer it to my ifi stack (idsd, itube, ican).

Love my Jot w/Dac.  I needed a small desktop solution at work to power by Ether C headphones.  Didn't have a lot of space, so the Jot fit the bill.  The sound is terrific in such a small footprint.

I've been looking around but haven't found the answer so I thought I'd ask: If you are running powered monitors out of the pre outs, and you plug in headphones, will it mute the monitors?

The preouts are not muted when plugging in headphones.

TY, it was almost perfect :/

Have anyone compares Jot vs. Deckyard yet?! What do you guys think?

 

[mattlach]

Does anyone know if there are any downsides to using both the balanced and single ended preamp outs on the Jotunheim at the same time?

Unfortunately you won't find any balanced amp that does this.  
 
It's not a Schiit limitation.
 
Just about every audio manufacturer out there relies on off the shelf parts for their connectors, and while there are TRS connectors with internal mute switches, there are no 4 pin XLR connectors with this type of switch.
 
Schiit simply can't order the parts necessary for this behavior, because they don't exist.

Just set up my Jot and I'm already loving it. It sounds brilliant and there's plenty of power for everything I have

Merry Christmas to all!
