This is an honest and very refreshing way of letting your customers know where you are at and why. Rare. Stay the course. Gonna get that Loki for my already Schiit based desk-top. If I have to wait ... don't care.
It's criminal there aren't more comments on this. I've been loving these streams! Just ordered one of the closeout Eitr's and a mug, and couldn't be happier! Excited to see what new possibilities get realized from expanding capacity.
Even though my stuff was pushed back a month, I am very pleased that you want our stuff to meet your quality standards before shipping. Thank you for explaining the situation. I will wait patiently
I'm a fairly new customer. I bought a Lyr 3 a few months ago and it is a fantastic tube hybrid amp with incredible flexibility for headphones. I followed up with ordering a Loki M since not all music is perfectly recorded and my speakers sound different than my headphones. You guys did me a solid by instead sending me the new M+. You've got a new customer for life. Thank you for this excellent communication.
Good day Jason. Iv been waiting for this. Love my new Vidar. Thanks so much to all of you for what you do. Absolutely love your schiit. Cant wait to buy more. All the best stay safe.
Being a New Englander, it's funny hearing about driving in snow, ice, sleet and rain storms. We drive in blizzards. If you have a front wheel drive car without AWD, nothing beats Bridgestone Blizzak tires in snow and ice. I've never been stuck with them.
I have four items on back order, would I rather get them quickly… of course. But is it worth waiting for a company that produces high-quality that sounds great, manufactures in the US, employs local labor and maintain good prices? YOU BET! Good luck with your expansion guys!
I've had a Modi Multibit, Loki, and Vali 2 back-ordered since January. I didn't know the details why for the delay, but you know the way things are, I certainly wasn't surprised by any means. So I'm glad I stumbled across this video to hear what's going on internally with Schiit. The expansion of production in Texas is certainly good news and I hope it progresses smoothly!
I get it. My work is also dealing with supply issues. As you say "you can't plan only react". But the thing is, it was totally worth the wait. My Freya/Aegis x 2 system is ridiculously good sounding.
Your streams are extremely entertaining, and fun to watch. Please keep them coming. Corpus Christi was my happy home sometime back, and I am glad that you like it, as I did, before my company transferred me to Dallas. I never again had such a beautiful window view as I had from my corporate work desk in an uptown highrise overlooking Corpus Christi Bay to the east. Great place for your employees. I'm having crazy good fun enjoying my new Magni Heresy and Modi 3+. They are absolutely incredibly good in so many ways, and then some. My favorite listening test cut, "Texas Flood" from "The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble" was the first thing I listened to on my new Heresy stack on my antique 600 Ohm Sennheisers, and it just blew me away with its revealing clarity, dead black noise floor, and overall great sound. To solve my dilemma regarding whether to buy either a Heresy/Modi 3+ or Magni 3+/Modi Multibit stack, I've decided to buy both, have the best of all options, keep enough for my critical beer budget, and call my new thickening Schiit plot good for now. Many thanks!
I was born in California and raised in Texas - I love both. 🤗 I even lived in Corpus Christi for a short time as kid, live in Dallas now and stoked that Schiit now also has a presence here in the Lone Star State.
Great for them that sales are so good they just can’t keep up.. a bit enjoying for us..:-) definitely European customers, our local distributor has been out of stock since the start of the first lockdown..
I'm in Central Maryland, where it rains every three days. Other than a hurricane up the Chesapeake Bay every 40 years and a drought every 30 years, and a massive snow storm every 20 years, it's pretty much bullet proof. The cicadas were a little annoying, but they're gone by now.
As a Texan and a Schiit fan. I'm so sorry you had to experience Texas like that. It does happen, but very rarely. Texageddon or Texmageddon is appropriate given the events of that week. You are correct about getting away from the coast during a Hurricane. But, you have to actually leave the costal area early enough to not get caught in the rush of million people that have the same idea.
Gotta say that cabby looks tasty.. Hillside select, a bit on the steep side for me but must be nice! :D On a side note I've ordered a Freya+ in the end of Jan and it was backordered for late March. I took the order and it was shipped after 30 something days.. Not bad considering!
Love my Modi, waiting for my Vali. That back and forth skid on the icy bridge was mechanical oscillation, driven by a mismatch between the corrective inputs and the required inputs. If you had continued long enough the car does a complete 180 and the system becomes so nonlinear that the oscillation stops.
Glad to hear you aren't leaving California all together. Your title had me concerned. While manufacturing can be done in other locations, I still believe design and enginerring in an area with so much talent has some advantages too.
I've been hearing very good things about the Jotunheim 2, I look forward to being able to try one some day soon, I wish you guys all the best going forward.
2023 request: so much more SCHIIT has happened since your book, you should release an update! Or, a sequel. "I could give two Schiits." Cutting off in 2015 is like "Pirates of silicon valley" cutting off the apple story in 1997.
@@astheworldburns3590 With no offense to you Paul I asked the company when not why. Covid and a 'trade war' as you put it don't seem to have stopped the Texas store being opened. If they are focussing on the home market they should be honest about that and not have a UK website offering quite literally nothing.
It’s always been like that from my experience. I have given up, there are other brands - but I would have liked to try the much hyped Mani and the Modi 3.

Sweet. I ordered a Modi and honestly cancelled my order as I got impatient. I have an Asgard and really like it. I apologize for my impatience and will reorder in the near future.
Not that I’m complaining that prices are as low as they are but truthfully a 10% to 15% price increase across the board wouldn’t change a purchasing decision for me on any Schiit product. 😌
Do you consider adding a Balance functionality to the Loki "max"? You know, the volume level difference set for left and right channel. The EQ is great for correcting some room nodes, and the Balance would also help when setting up speakers in unusual positions/places, not to mentioned for people with hearing disorders where one ear hears better than the other. Neither of your preamps have that, which is a pity. Thanks in advance for the answer. PS: My Freya + was shipped in 3 weeks since the order. Earlier than the site suggested to be shipped. So from my side it was fine.
Ive been bugging your q+a staff about a Lokius for months now knowing thst they cant respond. Doesnt hurt to ask. Looking forward to seeing Loki Max. Any chance of seeing something between freya and Saga with balanced in/out. The Freya is too phisically big for my space.
Having worked manufacturing operations I feel you. Good problem to be in but can drive you crazy. Having also been involved in offshoring and hating it hope Texas goes well I liked Texas visited several time work and pleasure nice place thought of moving but better half thought better.
Put me down for a Loki Max...maybe 2. I remember a Steve Guttenburg aka the Audiophiliac video teasing that Schiit had some "big" products in the pipeline...maybe we could get a HUGE integrated amplifier-Ragnarok on a serious course of steroids? Waiting for them to pull out the Thor naming scheme
Backorder is crazy. I ordered a Magnius on February 22. It said BACKORDERED, SHIPS MARCH 2ND. On March 2, it changed to the 31ST. 😔 I'm only being patient because you guys rock. I wouldn't have put up with it with another company. Jason and Mike being so honest in videos and on Head-Fi is what has earned my trust in Schiit Audio and why I hold it in such high regard.
Now that I do NOT agree with, if it's going to be the 2nd then it better damn well be the 2nd. If you think it will be the 31st then add 2 weeks to it. Can't stand that shit. No pun intended. Now this customer doesn't believe you, because you lied to them.
I would just like to get my 10 month old Freya+ back first, where the remote volume control motor refuses to move beyond a certain point. I’ve had PS Audio stuff crap out on me, but this is a new one, Schiit-wise.
I hope Texas does not have the same kind of hyper-worry regulations for manufacturers like California has.... I remember how to simply change the fuse on my Yggdrasil would have voided out my warranty because of the seeming paranoia based regulations that California imposes.

Texas’ problem isn’t just under regulation, it’s corruption - and not just the type that goes with under regulation, but the type that led to it. I’m no fan of Newsom or all of the decisions CA makes, but at least votes count there.
