it may have been cute when schiit came out with its original batch of cheap shit. all sorts of compromises necessary to produce something for $149

But now we have schiit competing with massdrop competing with monoprice, producing seriously compromised product for prices approaching $700.

All sorts of issues including virtually no class A output power, split rail power supplies, low component life due to some really high chassis temperatures, noisy external switching power supplies and flyback switchers internally. Throw away product for sure.

When you can buy real products from real companies for $500 or less.

 

So the Gilmore Lite was my first "real" amp back in the day, sold it tho. I was thinking of picking the Liquid Platinum up but you seem to hate it. What would you recommend? I am currently using a Schiit Asgard 2.
