You should post to @syr1990 I don't use them, just trying to help out.

If you search for "Etsy Schiit Audio stack spacer" you'll see multiple options for silver and black. It was mentioned earlier in this thread, but easier just to search the 'Net. You could omit "Etsy" too, I reckon.

Ah, gear lust. It's a beautiful thing ⚙️:heart_eyes: I was reading about the Midgard last night after you mentioned it. Were you running it in Halo mode, and balanced in from the Modius E, and balanced out to the cans? I assume so, but figured I'd ask. It's an interesting experiment by Jason...

Yeah, just realized I was reading the specs wrong. I would say it's not a good idea then, as Schiit always said rolling tubes not specifically designed for any of the Lyr models was fine, as long as you didn't exceed the heater current limitation. So the Lyr OG could handle tubes the Lyr 2 could...

This page http://www.r-type.org/exhib/aad0139.htm says it's "Sensibly equivalent" to a 6SN7GT http://www.r-type.org/exhib/aaa0072.htm but I'm not sure about the heater current.

I have the Arya Stealth model and find it gets plenty loud at 1-2 o'clock with a modern mastering of "rock" music, and rarely do I push any recording past 2 o'clock. These specs from the HFM site caught my eye, though: Arya Impedance : 35 Ohms Sensitivity : 90db Arya Stealth Magnets Impedance...

I've had mine for ~13 months and no problems. 99%+ of the time I run it with a tube. I've rolled quite a few so far (not often a 6SN7; ECC82s lately), and no problems. It rarely gets warm to the touch; much cooler than the Lyr OG (only distant cousins in terms of design).

I know this thread is really old, but the title is perfect, so why reinvent the wheel. After a power outage (only 2 hours), the Bifrost 1 (multibit upgrade; returned once for a USB issue) refused to be recognized by either of two Windows 7 Ultimate x64 PCs it had been running on. After going...

Question re: the clicking while adjusting the volume. Before yours developed that problem there was no clicking at all when adjusting the volume; i.e., it was a smooth transition? Did the volume adjustment still work after the problem surfaced, before the firmware upgrade? Mine has had the...

This schiit has nothing to do with Schiit, so I'll attempt to bring it back around with a Bonus Round: what is the proper pronunciation of "short-lived"? I daresay it's not how one usually hears it, and sadly, regardless of how one pronounces it, the meaning applies to a fair few Lyr+ for...

It's French, bruh.... ;-) "timbre [ tam-ber, tim-; French tan-bruh ]" https://www.dictionary.com/browse/timbre?s=t

Pretty sure the point is that most Lyr+ purchased from roughly last November on are likely going to have problems. But yeah, I purchased mine on Oct. 14th and share your experience. I think I'll go melt my brain right now! ... and then listen to some music ;-)

You nailed it. Going from the Lyr OG to the Lyr+ with the Arya SE (95% head time) was exceptional enough to stop me buying the HE-1000 v2 at its recent sale price, even though I was given the green light.

I don't mean to get all conspiratorial ... OK, I do. Jason may want to consider the possibility, remote though it may seem, that this is a case of industrial... SABOTAGE! Fortunately, I first fired up my Lyr+ on 2022.10.21 with a 1953 Foton 6N8S. Knocking on a redwood, no problems with...

I'll be happy to spend your money for you :darthsmile:
