Schiit Owners Unite

Gumby is great, more analog than its big brother. On paper the Mjolnir 2 seems like a great amp. I needed the ability to drive speakers so I ended up with the Ragnarok - but I've always envied the tube option (oh yeah no longer) of the M-nir. It's got the power even for an HE-6. Enjoy!

Gungnir MB A2 is more neutral than even the Yggdrasil A2. I'd go for Schiit Bifrost 2 if you want to keep Gungnir MB A1's tonality

When came Gungnir MB A2?

I was searching and maybe missed it but has anyone compared the Mjolnir 1 & 2 for solid state operation side by side and provided impressions?

Understand the 2 provides options to tube roll. After doing a lot of various tube rolling when I was mostly 2 channel I’d like to keep to just solid state for now so weighing if I should save the extra coin by going v 1 if possible.

I've heard similar comments. I have a Gumby A1, with the board installed. I'm getting buried with it probably.

I just purchased a Modi 3 to go with my Asgard 1, and I must say I'm glad to have gotten more Schiit. Lol. To me it sounds pretty good. I have my computer feeding it with average files, nothing extra high resolution or anything crazy, but it's still a cool little DAC. And the aesthetics are nice. I'm sure some of you guys have them. I also tried the toslink in too and did some comparisons to USB, however I didn't notice any real difference. Both sounded quite nice.

I did an A/B comparison of the same song in lossless from my mac through the usb connection and the CD playing on the OPPO 203 outputting via coax and I really did not hear a difference that might be in part do to my age and limitations of my hearing or my headphones.

Hey guys, should I use my old original bifrost or buy a new modi?

That stand looks so heavy, man. Nice stack and cans, and all, but I'm wincing a little here.

No its really not too heavy, lol. Its made out of pvc. It needed to be big enough because I had four other pair up there with these but I sold some.
Ahh, okay. You had me worried there for a while!
