Ive replaced the freya with a rogue RP 7 and at first I was hugely disappointed and put the freya back in, but now have the rouge in place for several months and will remove it in April and go back with the freya plus, to really compare these two. At five times the price I would've thought the rouge would've shamed the freya.
Schiit Freya + Class A in Stereophile
I know there are a lot of audiophiles who don't think sterophile knows what they are talking about but I think its' pretty impressive that a 1000 preamp is put in the same category as 50K and up. I can't really believe that the Freya + is that good. I have one and do think it's pretty amazing for all that you get and you can really make it even better with some better tubes. I am constantly blown away at the sound of the Freya + into the Decware Zen triode amp. 2K for the combo and just about the best sound I have ever had in my home. Great news for less well heeled audiophiles.
