Not sure if excited to get them or scared to blow my phones. Oh well

>status backordered.



Talk about Christmas sales rush.


For now I'm using the DT 990/600 and MDR-7520. My ears dislike the feel of IEMs in the canals, so no worries about those.

This is the list so far..
• GE 6BZ7[size=medium]
• Amperex 6DJ8 / ECC88 - A-Frame, PQ label[size=medium][/size]

[size=medium] • Mullard CV2492 E88CC 6922 - 1969-1978 Dimple Disc Getter  [/size]
[size=medium] plus an incoming pair of Amperex Orange Globe[/size]
[size=medium] That's it, I'm done until I can really spend some time with all of them and decide which I like best.[/size]
[size=medium]  [/size]
[size=medium] Had the Lorenz Stuttgart but sold them to fund my Bifrost.. silly me

[size=medium]  [/size]
[size=medium] I definitely don't have a golden ear.. for now, prefer the GE's but really haven't spent much time with the others.  Right now I'm listening with the Senn HD700 but have plans on getting the HiFiMAN HE-500's. [/size]
[size=medium]  [/size]
[size=medium] On another note, just pulled the trigger on the Mangi.. for $99, it's worth a try.[/size]

I'm happy with my asgard...thank you for share your collection.

Does it come with gum?

 

[MickeyVee]

Sweet.. looking forward to your unboxing and impressions.  Given the way USPS is, I should see mine (in Canada) in about 2 weeks or so.  
I sent my Lyr in to get the relay switch added, it shipped back on Dec 5 and I'm still waiting for it.

damn, two weeks is a long time.  Sorry bro!

 

[MickeyVee]

Been without the Lyr for over a month now.  There are worse things in life but I'm looking forward to getting it back.  Been using my AudioQuest DragonFly and AudioEngine D1 in the interim.  Just not the same.  Looking forward to pairing the DragonFly with the Mangi.

Tubes are an expensive hobby. I became a SS guy due to an over-emphasized sense of self-preservation.

That is so true.
Stupid money.
 
Looking forward to hearing impression of the micro kit.
I hate cords so I like the USB Power feature.
I might get a kit for my wife.

 

[swmtnbiker]

Stupid money indeed. I'm still waiting for that phone call from the lawyer of the long-lost rich uncle I never knew I had. Being independently wealthy would make my life soooooo much easier.

I don't have anything profound to say, but got to get in on this Schiit.  I love my Asgard/Bifrost Combo, and there is a Mjolnir with my name on it in the mail.  Next on the list is the Gungnir, but it is a ways off.  In the meantime the two tiny Schiits look like a fun, and the Modi may have to be my laptop to Mjolnir bridge until I win the lottery, or get my tax return!  Anyhow, I seem to be acquiring quite the pile of Schiit and couldn't be happier!  Cheers fellow fanboys!!!

well then you may be the original collector given if schiit got written into history. and the schiit stack may become big $$ in the distant future loulz/

 

[SHAHZADA123]

SUBSCRIBED.
 
The Mjolnir is the best amp I've heard with the LCD3s & HP1000s. Even better than the mighty ECBA.
For HD800s, the Valhalla was excellent but not as good as the ECBA. So it's gone.
Lyr was also nice with the LCDs but the Mjolnir is just terrific.
 
IME, Schiit does come up with new products which are significantly better than their predecessors.
Waiting for their STATEMENT SCHIIT... 

 

[Mad Lust Envy]

The only statement I want from Schiit is a pure SS amp with the power of the Lyr or more... like my SA-31, but with a volume knob, and Schiit aesthetics...

 

[gmahler2u]

I have question to Vahalla owner and Lyr owner.  Which amp is good with hd800?
