NOT: Theory on the new Schiit

Probably it's just because a flood of Modi Multibit just came in. Travis probably doesn't share much of Schiit's inside plans.

 

This. Jotunheim has no obvious similarly-sized, balanced pairing in the Schiit line-up. Something balanced and Bifrost-sized (and R2R) seems like inevitable...

 

This convinced me that Soup is Jason's cousin... both of them choose not to acknowledge it publicly

 

Hahaha not to toot my own horn but I said the same thing forever ago in this thread or the theory on new shit thread too

Though, alas, I have zero inside info, just a lucky, reasonably informed guess.

Edit: thought this was the Schiit show thread. Oops.

 

Oh hey! Look at what I found on Audiocircle..

Looks like Schiit ordered these to be used for their showroom at RMAF.

Edit: it says that they ordered it for a new showroom at their HQ. So maybe not... but still a possibility. They look sexy though!

 

Those speaker sure use the Schiity color scheme. Promising. Please, I would love to hear Salk speakers, so I hope they are at RMAF.

 

it's only aluminum metallic colored paint. I'd like to see actual aluminum panels

 

IIRC, schiit used Salk speakers at The Show in Newport paired up with Raggy, right? There were all of these $200,000 systems, and schiit has about $10k in their Yggdrasil/raggy/Salk setup and was impressive (although price tag audiophiles could never admit this).

 

Not my pic, but the caption from the taker was "wonderful sound". From https://m.imgur.com/a/d0IIH

 

@baldr has dropped another nugget of schiit in his HF thread;

Now for something completely different. BOLO for a new vanguard of fuglytivity brought to your neighborhood by none other than Schiit Audio. It is difficult, no impossible for me to express how repulsive the aesthetics (lack thereof) of this product are. In true "Schiit rolls downhill" fashion, it will be users of our Magni/Modi sized products necessarily targeted. I have dubbed it Cthulhu. It clearly argues function trumps aesthetics by a wide margin. It is a veritable home wrecker. Mine will be installed covered by at least three bags, lest two break. This visual abomination is entirely Jason's doing. It is truly stunning.

Watch it be the same enclosure as all the other schiit products lmao.

 

The real magic is all the people like "Release date? price? pictures? C'mob!" Head-Fi hype machine like a bunch of piranhas.

 

Unlike when Jason mentioned a "mystery product" on another thread here. It's why you can get nice things here.

 

A miniaturized Wyrd?

 

Folks, it looks as if Schiit is considering to expand into French cuisine:



@schiit, how many Michelin stars do you expect to get for this establishment?
Either way, it'll be the biggest-sized schiit yet!

 

Well, Get ready guys.. USB Gen 4 coming soon??? aka half life 3 confirmed.

MTOC fighting the good fight over at Head-Fi.

 

To put a bit of cold water on the speculation around Bifrost and Jodeleyhehoo
