Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

Gungnir owners, I have quick question for you:
What do you pair yours with? Meaning, what do the chains look like that you have your Gungnir in?
CD transport (coax) or raspberry pi (usb gen 5)--> Gungnir --> Mjolnir 2 --> DCA Aeon 2

If there a list of tubes that are usable in various Schiit it would be most helpful. Many of us have several components with FV, Freya, Lyr, Vali and Mjolnir accepting various forms of different tubes. I have yet to obtain a 12a_7 adapter but I probably need to. Badly.
No 'master' list that I'm aware of. With the number of Schiit tube components available and the possible tube combinations that could work the list would be close to endless. The HeadFi threads that are dedicated to specific Schiit components have a lot of info on tube rolling, so some good resources within them.

I've been listening to my Vali 2++ for a couple days in preparation for receiving my Vali 3, which just came in. I'm using the same 396a tube in both. Out of the box, I find the 3 a substantial improvement over the 2++. Same form factor, but noticeably better sound for my taste. I'll leave it to @adydula to review the unit in detail. He is much better than I at doing so. Suffice it to say, Jason has another winner on his hands for sure.

Well gosh! Y'all are making me wish I earned commissions off of these bottles - I could buy some new Schiit! 😝

I seriously LOVE seeing all these OSD bottles being enjoyed around the nation. Kinda blows my mind. ☺️
Well you've certainly sold a bunch of bottles for them! With all the recent departures they should just promote you already.

Geez. Now I can't get this out of my head... :rolling_eyes:

"Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night."
