Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
Mar 22, 2024 at 5:52 PM Post #144,603 of 152,429
Gungnir owners, I have a quick question for you:
What do you pair yours with? Meaning, what do the chains look like that you have your Gungnir in?
I have a number of sources that feed Gungnir. For CD transports I use Urd [USB and SPDIF], Cary CD303/200 [SPDIF], for network access , various Windows desktop and laptop computers {USB and coax SPDIF], WiiM device [SPDIF]. Network has a small server with a 7TB RAID 5 array holding my audio files. It also accepts toslink audio from a Samsung TV on rare occasions.
Gungnir feeds, in all scenarios, an OG Freya, which feeds either Ageir or one of numerous home made tube amps.
I hope that this helps, PM me if you want gory details.

Well you've certainly sold a bunch of bottles for them! With all the recent departures they should just promote you already.
That promotion would entail entirely too much computer time and too many phone calls for my taste. I prefer stirring whiskey. 😁

We will see, do you have a Vali and other gear that size?
no, but i am considering it.
yggy og1 and Mentor is pretty damn hefty for a rack situation.
may be a better candidate for a flight board or some other creation. flight board with a rolling tray in it would be some Slack schiit lolol

Well, if you're going to dip into the black label, @Paladin79 then I figured it is time to finish this project. Kudos and thank you for helping out the man cave! Outstanding. I think the glencairn hangers really finish it...20240321_221135.jpg

Isn’t that a little close to the dartboard? :D

We need the best measuring DAC and amps!1!. Lower noise floor etc

1 minute later, hmm well let's add some tube distortion for a warmer sound signature :smile:
hahahahahaha

QoL considerations are top of the list for me too

Geez. Now I can't get this out of my head... :rolling_eyes:

"Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night."
You got that one right, Ripper!

Are you old enough to remember the group Black Oak Arkansas?
Yeah I remember them being a pretty big deal when I was a youngster growing up in Austin. Might be the first time I heard anything "Arkansas" related.
I turn 50 this year so I'm no Spring Chicken anymore. As a teen I was into a ton of late 60's/ 70's music so then I actually listened to them a bit. Pretty sure they were peaking a bit before my time. I didnt actually show up in Arkansas until 88. Fayetteville is a great place and here I still sit.
