Schiit is, HANDS DOWN, my #1 go to for headphone gear (DACs/Amps). They manage to provide the absolute bang-for-the-buck across price ranges. Whether you are getting your FIRST amp or first DAC (after learning what the heck a 'DAC' is) or working your way into some higher end gear, Schiit will impress you. Above that, Jason and Mike strive to educate and listen to their customers.
Love this video! For a snarky as Mike can be, he was really reserved here. Did you hear Mike talk about how important failure is to having success? And having fun at work? That is wisdom right there folks. The audio community is so lucky to have Mike and Jason working together to make amazing components for us. "Two cats f...ing!" There it is!! Love my Asgard 3 with internal DAC. Please keep these videos coming.
One of the reasons I enjoy Schiit products so much is precisely due to the notion that I can have fun. The entry level "stuff" is not expensive and it can always be sold if more fun or different fun is desired through the stepping up to more higher end "stuff". This gadget thing sounds like a Schiit-load of fun even though I have little knowledge of what it is or what it does other than "changes-the-sound????" Be well Mike ... very well🌈
May God bless you, Mike. You look and sound good. Keep the pedal to the metal on your way back to feeling better and having more fun. At 65, I am discovering only recently that you and Jason give such incredibly informative and entertaining no-bull interviews about your audio world. Thank you and Jason for being so accessible to us mere mortal customers who just dabble in audio for our fun and entertainment. I just made my first purchase, a nice Schiit stack, and really do look forward to enjoying my music the way it should be heard for as long as possible, with more good Schiit to come. I am an old new fan, now, and am excited about getting deeper... Well, you know where I'm going.
Would love to hear more mike moffet unfiltered! Never have I cracked up laughing so much listening to interview on audio! Last time I cracked up like this was watching George Carlin! Thank you lMike! When I finally get some of your gear I will definitely have you, Jason and possibly everybody at schiit sign it! Thanks!
Ordered a few products from you guys last month, can’t wait to get them when they’re available! I’m just worried that you’ve led me down a very schiit-y rabbit hole that I won’t be able to escape. 🤘
@@stephenmahlstedt8533 Schiit doesn't normally do remotes like that...I'd be nice but would add to the development. Full size balanced 5-7 band @ about $200 -225 is what I'd expect.
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 silicone valley" cutting off the apple story in 1997.
Mike can praise Wagner's RING cycle and Schiit on LaTraviata and make it seem like a case study in the humanities. As for the "goose stepping around the room" comment... My dad was in WWII or as they say "the BIG one" and he was telling a story about the fighting in the Philippines. My mother tried to stop him from being overly graphic and suggested some political correctness. "Politically correct my ass! sleeping in a fox hole you didn't know if you were gonna wake up dead" Perhaps he had to much to drink, which was also quite normal. -✌🏼
Thanks for the tube question, YES USB IS INDEED ABLE TO KICK BUTT ! Great moves! Of course things are better than things ... the market is going to filter things twords QUALITY because of Reddit ect.....this man right here is why companies can become AMAZING companies
Power switches need to be (sound quality wise) as close as possible to the power supply. And that is .... on the back. Not always convenient but always the best sounding solution.
Gotta love Mike’s outlook on life and audio- just have fun,! Stay strong Mike.
Live long Mike!
Jason - “It was a different time”
Mike - “It was 1974”

So glad to see Mr. Moffat is back and feeling apparently feeling better! Long live the King of DAC designers and all-around cool guy.

Word

My first amp & dac is the Schiit stack. I love everything about their products and company.
Well done.

Great interview! I loved the part about PKD. Awesome.
Thanks, Mike. You’re a brilliant thinker. Always a pleasure to hear you speak about components and with a sense of humor too. Love my Schiit gear.
“I’m like a music pump...” 🙌🏽. Schiit is awesome.

i'm so glad the gadget is done. hope you can release it in the near future, preferably in the near near future!

Mike's bad ass.
HOW DID I NOT KNOW SCHIIT HAS A RUclips CHANNEL!?! AHHHH!
SOOOO HAPPY TO FIND THIS!!!
im saving up, will be getting schiit stack of my own in the near future
So I could tell from the site that the folks at Schiit were pretty cool. Seeing this video just 100000% validates that view ;)
yeah theyre totally chill and really smart but not pretentious
Incredible. So nice when your engineer also ENJOYS the music. Who"d of thought?
This guy is great!
“To really succeed you need to have some COLOSSAL screw ups”. Love it. Stay strong, Mike. Love the unison USB in my yggy.
Feel better, Mike.
Welcome back Mike!!! Keep on surviving!!! You the man!!!!!!!!

Loki XL (mentioned before) - Gimme gimme gimme!
RdyPlyOne ooh a balanced version
@@looyoo0-u6i YES!
RdyPlyOne YO I’M ON BOARD
I would buy one of those in a heartbeat! Balanced and with remote control for listening position EQ tweaks :)

i have a pretty important question
when will anything be available in europe?
I seriously can't wait for an Yggy A3 board upgrade! Give us some more details! :)
Man! I just received my Bifrost 2 and find out I could have had Mike's autograph on it!!
i love your guys stuff! ill be ordering a modi and magni stack soon!
What a coincidence, I ordered my Modi 3 the same day this vid was made.
I'm not going to rest until they come with a PURE model.

14 checks... damn. Thanks Mike.
Love my modi multibit!
Glad to see you.

I have a question why no gain in the buffer and differential on the Freya + ?
We should call this segment ‘Life with Louie’
You cannot buy Schiit in Europe. It's been sold out for a year now. :-(
You can always order from them directly, it's completely hassle free and won't cost that much more.
Imagine today's 25 year olds transported back into 1974. They'd last a week.
We need to have Lisa on here to tell some tales of the early Garage days of Schiit Audio

such a cutie
Fast, good, and cheap: you get 2 of 3, that's a life rule. I'll wait for your good and cheap.
Hi Mike.
Since my 25 year old Technics studio transport blew up I am waiting for your trans .....
Is this the Seinfeld guy?
For a company dealing in audio products, the audio quality of your videos are .....
Power switches NEED to be placed on the front panel of EVERY item.
Power switches need to be (sound quality wise) as close as possible to the power supply. And that is .... on the back. Not always convenient but always the best sounding solution.
@@ESL-Plus I never turn off my gear begin with so on the back is perfect.
I dont like 300 switches on my face like im about to fly a fucking sr-71. I just want clean schiit.
maybe instead of a swtich a large textured button on the back would work better
