I just got a Saga last week. Is it normal to still hear
music with the potentiometer turned fully counterclockwise?
Thanks.

Yes it is. You'll still hear it although quite faintly. Freya is the same. Also when you hit mute you'll still hear just a bit. For me it's no big deal.

Thank you Mike!

I’ve been looking hard at this for awhile, solves some of my current setups missing features. I dropped the ball a couple of weeks ago when they some black ones in stock. Only thing that’s been holding me back is lack of headphone out. Not a huge deal but I have no headphone jack on my tv which I don’t run through main system, so simple jack would have been nice. Doesn’t have to be super powerful or anything, just a point of entry.

The replacement remote for the Saga / Freya is magnetic!!!

Note:

If you stack a Mimby and Mani next to your Saga ... you can use a Pyst cable for one of the devices, but will need a slightly longer IC for the other device.

I have the Pyst running from the Mani to Input 1 of the Saga
I had to get a 1' BJC to run from the ModiMB to Input 5 of the Saga.

Schiit Stack including my new Saga addition. So far I really like this little preamp.

I will post impressions after some more critical listening...

I leave the knob on my Saga about 1:00. When I power the Saga on it starts at that volume. I then use the remote to adjust the volume level to suit.

Both triodes glow on mine.

You may want to try unplugging the tube and reinserting it. There may be a bad contact. Good luck.
