It's on the cables themselves.

 

 
How do you know that Schiit's Pyst cables are made by Straightwire? They don't seem to be advertising this anywhere...

I was deferring to Astral's knowledge but if you look at the connectors, they certainly look like the ones Straightwire is using. There is another thread here where you can talk to the folks from Schiit, I imagine they can confirm it as well.

Although since the Pyst cables are so short, you may not get a section that actually says Straightwire on it.

I thought maybe the connector had it on there as well, thanks for confirming it. Those are pretty decent cables I am sure. I have a preference for some others so I have never bought any.

And I confirm my PYST cables are identical to these findings. Both sets.

Someone will be claiming next that Schiit don't make their own amps/DACs... )

I've got a hand-soldered (by Mike or Dave) first article "4490" DAC/analog-stage board that say's otherwise!

What should i do with my modi 2 when my bifrost multibit arrive in the mail?
Buy a magni 2 and use it at school?
But then then i would need new closed headphones

 I continue to use an original Opti Modi as a dedicated D/A for my television which has a Toslink digital output. It now connects to a cheap bluetooth transmitter so I can use wireless headphones for late night viewing.
 
Previously I connected it to the digital output of a Mac Mini (plus video output from the Mac) so I could play iTunes, Netflix, Youtube, etc on the A/V system when I didn't have a smart TV.

Ahh nice setup. But i do not own a tv or a speaker system.
So i dont know what to do with it.

Well then I guess you must buy another amp and headphones for another system!
 
Or...
 
I'm guessing you could probably sell it. Since you are in Norway I would think it should hold it's value and someone would love to have ov=ne without paying all the import duties.

They ran out of metal. Will be available again.

Checking in with a Bitfrost Mulitbit/Valhalla 2 setup. My DT880 600ohm cans sound incredible through this setup.

It is good to know the Valhalla 2 will drive 600 ohm cans. I have not have had the pleasure to try mine with any of that high an impedance yet.
