    Schiit Tyr mono amplifier

    Hi...Call me slow...but your statement is not clear to me. Were the Tyrs. better than the Outlaw? Just want to confirm. (Running a McIntosh MC152 here.)....I love Schitt gear...I have a "modified" Freya + and a Loki Max.

    Norah Jones – Visions – first single – Running. Will it be a reference like "Come Away With Me"? (Stereo vs Dolby Atmos)

    This post is after release of the full album. I am so glad that you are posting this reference info.. I am a fan of Norah Jones. Famished for some new music. I have very decent headphone and speaker set-ups. I stream Qobuz thru Volumio & Roon. I am not getting into the compositions here…just the...

    Schiit Freya S Preamplifier Review 2

    Good! I thought about it and was going to suggest that you pull it out, as it is just a friction fit. Maybe the back of the knob was just rubbing on the chassis? Glad you fixed it…sounds like you have been thru enough!

    Schiit Freya S Preamplifier Review 2

    Are you close to the unit when this occurs? Back away from the Freya about 6' or so and it should work fine.

    Schiit Freya S Preamplifier Review 2

    The metal of the casing is actually quite thick...So...no worries about it warping. I am guessing it is a little over 1/8" thick.... I used hand tools...That part was totally in my wheelhouse, so I took my time and all went well....I solder...but not circuit boards...that is where I had to ask...

    Schiit Freya S Preamplifier Review 2

    I love my Freya+…working just fine for over a year!…I am a tube-stage only guy….but I get itchy ….so I did some research…I am pretty handy…I switched out the $10 WIMA caps in the tube stage circuits (little red buildings) for $90 V-2 ODAM Caps…and found some really cool vents online for the...

    Linear power supply for DAC, switch/router improve SQ?

    Could a linear power supply make a difference on a high-quality raspberry-pi based streamer sending signal to a high-end DAC using an I2S connection?

    Schiit Tyr mono amplifier

    I know it's a low number. Apparently, with a lot of their gear Schiit does a "run" (I found that out here). I believe Jason give the number in this video: He talks about the Tyr like it’s a pet project…. I ordered a Loki Max over 4 months ago, and right now Schiit is giving me no hint at a...

    Schiit Tyr mono amplifier

    I guess that business model works for them. Making gear in the U.S. has to be challenging because of labor costs.

    Schiit Tyr mono amplifier

    Oh…Electrostatics..I am not "that" familiar…but I know that they benefit from a LOT of power. I heard a pair once in the 70's :) …but that is a discussion. I bet that they are great! People swear by them. Not practical for my smaller room. I am running DynAudio Contour 20s. They are rated 4-ohm...

    Schiit Tyr mono amplifier

    What is an ESLX? GREAT to hear some actual, real feedback. You sound happy! What were you using before? After you have listened a while and burned the amps in give us more info. I am just really curious about these amps. I am very happy with my amp, but these are intriguing! Are you the reason...
