How much Schiit does one need?
Need a preamp for my new Manley Mahi monoblocks. Trying to decide between the Saga (passive) and the Freya preamps. What say you? How much Schiit does a person need?

Glenn.......The fully balanced Schiit Audio Freya offers more options, particularly balanced inputs and outputs, the ability to use it in passive mode or with the tubes engaged, and remote control. Go for the gusto.

It’s OK but not great IMO. |

While the Freya obviously has more bells & whistles and a balanced in/out, I'm leaning towards the Saga for my 'minimalist' system for now. If it doesn't suit me in the first 15 days I'll send it back and get the Freya. My longer term foal is to find a CJ or BAT tube preamp.

These titles never get old

I'm absolutely amazed at how inexpensive Schiit gear costs. In perusing the Web for a phono preamp, I was shocked to discover Schiit's phono preamp - the Mani, only costs $129! How on earth?!

Check out Ray Samuels F-117 Nighthawk. Also made in the USA. 5-6X the cost of the Schiit, but receives great reviews.

I don’t think Schiit have to resort to ‘loss leaders’ to maintain market share.
