July 19, 201016 yr comment_373207 I bought the Schiit Asgard to be trendy and cool for 15 days. True story. Report
July 20, 201016 yr comment_373325 Oh noes, Asr doesn't hate the Asgard yet. I'm hoping he'll bring it to the Colorado meet next month, just to hear it out of curiosity. Report
August 16, 201016 yr comment_380332 hate to bring back a thread from death but was this another sleek audio sa 6? no chatter for a while. friends at school would like suggestions in this amps price range. Report
August 16, 201016 yr comment_380363 Yep, drives my HE-5LE better than my Audio-gd Phoenix did. Sold my Phoenix and Pocketed the difference. Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382222 Let's see if I can get through this post without a single shit pun. I was thinking of pre-ordering the Valhalla to try out with my HD600s. Then I read that they (Schiit) feel the Asgard does a great job with Sennheisers. Hmmmm, which to order....? Any thoughts? The thoughts don't have to be about amp choice either... Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382310 Damn...I just saw an X-Can for about $100 less. I know...buy both. Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382313 Damn...I just saw an X-Can for about $100 less. I know...buy both. no, buy neither Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382329 That certainly eases the decision-making process. I think I just want to buy something...maybe I'll just spend a few hundred dollars on booze. Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382333 I would buy the Schitt unheard and untested before the X-Can, but that is just me. Oh, and I would buy the booze too. Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382335 I was trying to pull the trigger last night on the Valhalla but couldn't get Giggle checkout to work. I thought it was a sign... Yeah, the booze is a definite regardless... Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382338 I was thinking of buying the Valhalla a while back, but I decided to get the Crack. Slightly different, but they both have tubes! Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382346 That's an interesting alternative. I never gave DIY much consideration. It sounds like it wouldn't be a difficult first-time project. Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382402 chuke, which X-Can model and for how much? I am one of those who enjoys the X-Can sound specially after modifying it using the PinkFloyd kit. Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382455 x-can v3...haven't heard back from the guy yet. $275 on audiogon with a couple 6n23p russian tubes from upscale audio. I just hate to wait for a Schiit... Report
August 24, 201016 yr comment_382461 chuke, although the V3 is probably the "most correct" sounding it was to me boring as compared with the V2. However the sound is not for all since the V2 does color the sound a bit more, say tubey/euphoric. I call it fun and engaging, it gets my feet tapping. Good luck. Report
August 25, 201016 yr comment_382596 Take the money you'd spend on shitty amps and shitty headphones, combine them, and get JH13s Report
August 25, 201016 yr comment_382611 HD600s and that schiity amp will be fine for me. I maintain low expectations. My hearing sort of sucks too. Plus, I'm a homebrewer, serious cyclist, and avid drinker. That's where most of my money's spent. Report
August 25, 201016 yr comment_382708 Good choice...maybe...takes big ones to order sound unheard. Let us know what you think. Report
