Thanks for your comments. As some additional insight into buying the Schiit Mjolnir 2 last year, it was a toss up between the Freya+ and the Mjolnir, I wanted a tube preamp, but I also wanted a balanced (4pin) headphone connection. The Freya+ offered some attractive options including; tube/or solid state plus a remote, which I solely regret seeing the Mjolnir dosen't have a remote, and I constantly have to get up to change the volume. The mjolner is, from what I understand, a true balanced in and balanced out preamp so it would accommodate both my balanced headphones and balanced out to the amp. I understand that the Mjolnir now has been discontinued, but I would welcome comments, or peoples experience with the Mjolner 2 or the Freya+ and some of the compromises they have made in buying a preamp.
Thoughts on Schiit Mjolnor tube preamp/headphone amp
I am currently using my Mjolnor Preamp. to run both my balanced headphones and balanced Adcom 555se and Wilson Benesch Square Two Speakers. I am currently using a Teac UD-501 balanced Dac, Sansui SR 525 turntable and Nagaota MP 300 Cartridge. I split time between the headphones and speakers about evenly (Condo Living) I try to spare the neighbours during sleeping hours! I have a mix of vintage and newer, with the Wilson Benesch speakers being the latest addition.
Just wondering what thoughts folks had on the Schiit Mjolnor as the preamp?
