Having all four of these Schiit multibit DACs is a considerable privilege. Comparing them to other DACs with printed words is challenging at best. These need to be heard, preferably in level matched A/B comparison to other DACs, to fully appreciate the advancements achieved by Mike Moffat and...

Here we are at the beginning of a long overdue journal of my audio life since 1967, when I sold my very first audio product. It was a modified Dynaco Stereo 70 amplifier, which I had tweaked to drive my Quad ESL speakers, a tricky deal as they were very revealing of less than ideal amps, not to...

Got my Yggy today and I'm happy to report that there are no USB issues with the 5K iMac, waking from sleep or otherwise.     I repurposed my Gungnir too -- ended up with a Raspberry PI 2 + Hifiberry Digi+ > SPDIF RCA to BNC > Gungnir > WA6 > TH-900. I shouldn't be at this point, but...

Hi,   I'm interested in headphones (around-the-ear) for $400-600 and I was thinking about the HE-400.   I mainly listen to Rock, Country & R&B and will be sourcing from my Macbook Pro. Let me know if I should choose another headphone!   In addition, I'm a bit confused about amps?  ...

I'm going to purchase a modestly priced Amp/DAC for my Sennheiser 598s      Current setup: I've got a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) > Audirvana Plus > HD598   Of the 4 options, what do you guys suggest would give me the best sound?   Amps: Magni2 Uber Vali   DACS: Modi2...

I've been using the Fiio E7 with my Android phone for some time now and I'm happy with the sound. However I'm looking to reduce the bulk of my setup so I'm in the market for a small DAC/amp to replace the E7. I've been looking at the Dragonfly from Audioquest as well as the Fulla from Schiit. I...

tl;dr: Buy this DAC. Spot on tonality, perfect timbre, perfect rendition of every freaking detail you could ever want, speed, resolution, I’ve never heard anything like it.     Intro: I’d like to preface this review with two caveats: 1. The version of the DAC I demoed was a...

**** This is NOT a real pre-order thread : it's merely an attempt to gauge interest in Yggdrasil beyond a hardcore group in two threads ****   I have zero affiliation with Schiit and - at this point in time - dont own a single Schiit product, but if the mods feel I'm needlessly contributing to...

Hey all, like most I've done tons of research in lines of what my wallet can handle and I'm starting to build quite a collection of 'junk' (per this forms standards!).   I own some Schiit stuff, some Fiio stuff and a collection of older turntables and seem to change my mind about setups more...

Dear Head-Fi guys/girls,   Because these babies deserve there own thread! Share your setup and talk about there awesomo factor 

Hey all,   Buckle up, because this is likely our biggest announcement of the year: the next-generation Magni 2 and Modi 2…together with their Uber counterparts.   There are four products in second-gen Magni/Modi family:   Magni 2. All-new discrete headphone amp with 1.2W RMS per channel...

Okay so i know you guys are going to attack me for having a pair of beats, but before you do these were a present. I do have a pair of m50's, d2000's, and a pair of custom in ears. So i dont need the extra grief of having these.. but thanks any way..    So on to why i am here, i originally...

I have been using the same setup for about a year now Q701 + Schiit M stack. I want to transition to IEM, but more importantly custom iems. my budget is 500, and i just want the best for the price. do any of you guys have any recommendations?

Living in the UK it can be very hard to find some of the more exotic audio brands and products online, so I thought it'd be a good idea to collate them in one thread. I ought to warn you in advance that the links posted won't necessarily be of authorised dealers so be careful that you're not...

    Wow, this lady looks great... but do you notice what's wrong with this picture?              Anyway, how about them HD598s? It's been long enough since their release, so I'm sure you guys must have some very mature impressions of them by now!

Hello,   I'm on the quest for headphones on a budget of $300.   Sound: Looking for a lush, full sound that is especially strong with mids for reproducing female vocals while not being especially lacking in other areas. Punchy mid-bass and rumbling sub-bass are a plus. I also don't want...

Hey everyone,   Planning to get either the AKG 550s, DT 770's, or the ATH-A900X's fort gaming purposes soon.   I was just wondering:   Is it better to get both the schiit stack and, as an example, a Sound Blaster Z?   Would that benefit the sound at all? Or should I get one or the other...

The Ragnarok officially debuted on the Schiit website today. The initial units will be distributed as part of a beta program, with general ordering opening up after the beta.  

...returning home after a long and hard working day you quickly rush to the shrine and ...there it is... your favourite toy...errrr... or second favourite, or whatever...   Anyway... your set-up is more than just about listening music? It is passion for design, fine mechanics, precision...

Just announced by Schiit.   Ragnarok is a 100wpc (into 4 ohms) amp and Yggdrasil is a bitperfect dac. Both have balanced XLR outputs.   From the preliminary spec sheet:   RAGNAROK:   "Ragnarok is the world’s first universal amplifier, fully capable of powering everything from...

Hey all, I’m Jason Stoddard, the co-founder (with Mike Moffat) of Schiit Audio. You may have seen some of my posts on Head-fi. But you haven’t heard the full story of Schiit…why we started the company, how we’ve grown from June 2010 to today, the good stuff…and the bad stuff. So, in a burst of...

Votes for Other Amps    - ALO Audio Pan Am: 3  - Bottlehead S.E.X.: 1 - Darkvoice 336SE: 1 - Schiit Asgard 2: 1 - Woo Audio WA7: 1   -----------------------------   I thought it would be fun/informative to see which amps are the most loved among the Head Fi community for driving the...

About two weeks ago I purchased a Lyr 1 ( Black ) direct from Schiit Central in Valencia , Ca. Unfortunately I found that this amplifier had a very low level of static on one channel. I contacted Customer Service at Schiit by email and Nick got back to me within the hour. We did some basic...

Intro This mini-review covers my thoughts on the Schiit Lyr vs HeadAmp GS-X in balanced mode, specifically for the Audeze LCD-2 r2 (with additional comments on the Senn HD800 and Audio-Technica AD2000 as well). Why these two amps? Because I already had the GS-X and was curious to find out...
