Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
That would be some funny cabling, but yes, it should work just fine. If you go this route you need to post a picture, as I'd like to see the balanced -> 4xRCA and then 2x1/4 plugs -> headphone cables.- Defiant00

Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread
If you've kept Windows 10 up to date you shouldn't need drivers, since W10 is finally USB Audio Class 2 compliant.- Defiant00

Schiit Modi and Magni comparison to Bifrost and Asgard
Playing 16-bit audio in 24-bit mode means that, from a digital perspective, you have quite a large range of digital volume control before it has any effect on SQ. A single 24-bit packet at full volume looks like this: [16 bits of data][00000000] (8 zeroes, resulting in a 24-bit piece of data)...- Defiant00

Don't forget, the Rag doesn't have a "headphone section" or "speaker section," it's all the same thing, just with different connectors.- Defiant00

Schiit Owners Unite
Personally I found the Jot just barely better/different than the Asgard 2 when using SE on both. Main thing I would mention for your overall query is that, at least with my Asgard 2 and the Jot that I tried, I was able to go much quieter without channel imbalance on the Asgard 2. If I had kept...- Defiant00

Then...just use one Vidar? Also, you can run mono into a 4-ohm load, but if you try and blow out your windows you might trip the protection first (which just means you'll have to switch it off and on again).- Defiant00

Happy as a Pig in Schiit: Introducing Modi Multibit
Warranty or not, it's still worth it to contact Schiit. They should be able to give you both suggestions and what your repair options are.- Defiant00

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
Because there are apparently no good XLR connectors that also contain a switch for when something is plugged in, but it's an easy/common thing for SE because of how the plug works. I know Jason has posted about this at some point, probably years ago.- Defiant00

Just use a y-splitter, there's no harm in having the Mimby output hooked up to both your speaker and headphone setups.- Defiant00

Happy as a Pig in Schiit: Introducing Modi Multibit
I prefer Schiit's multibit products, so I would recommend Mimby or Bimby. They both sound basically the same, so on sound quality alone I'd recommend Mimby. If you think you're going to keep it quite a while and might upgrade, maybe Bimby, but Mimby is definitely the better value proposition...- Defiant00

Happy as a Pig in Schiit: Introducing Modi Multibit
I suspect it's so that you don't have Windows switching sound devices on you when you turn your DAC on or off. My guess would be that they are of the opinion that if it's plugged in it should show up on your computer, regardless of whether the DAC is on or off. Entirely speculation on my part...- Defiant00
