Got the email from Jason earlier today. Pre-ordering is open. Now to find a credit card with some available balance!

Huh no email for me :frowning2:  No final casing on the site either.  Wonder if the timing is related to Burson's new 4W headamp/pre?

I signed up for the Gungnir but still got the Mjolnir email.

I signed up for both and didn't receive anything. I was going to pull the trigger on a Triple-Stack Balanced Ultra Desktop Package today but decided against it... Now do I wait for the Gungnir too or look for a different balanced DAC.

Incoming thread explosion. Still aren't any new pictures or specs on the final product. I'm a little confused on the inputs. Does it have both RCA and XLR inputs and you only connect one? Or is it a choose one and they build with only one?

I believe it only has balanced inputs. Hence the true "a real balanced amp from input to output".

Choose one when ordering, or when operating?

It was discussed back in March.  Comes with both, can only use one at a time.
 
 

Run single-ended in to a differential amplifier, and what do you get? Balanced. Balanced in is real balanced in--4 lines going to a 4-gang pot. Single-ended RCA is next to a switch that shorts one side of the balanced input to ground. That's why you can only choose one input.

And...it's that time! Mjolnir pre-order is open, shipping at the end of the month!

If you are part of the interest list, you should have gotten an email already. 
 
To answer some questions:
 
1. Yes, no final chassis photos yet--good work takes time. We should have photos up before we ship.
2. Mjolnir has both balanced and single-ended inputs. However, you can only use one at a time. There's a grounding switch for the single-ended inputs.
