The first Schiit product I bought was a DAC that didn’t DA properly. After determining it wasn’t me I had to argue for them to replace it. Then it worked for about 2 years before total failure. Their response was no fix just buy another.
Never again.
I do most of my music enjoyment on a Topping DAC balanced into a Topping amp, This system saves ~200 watts off my electrical draw over the A system which I feel no compulsion for. It takes any abuse I give it, total silence between program.
I already got my money’s worth
