Schiit Freya +


Read some interesting reviews of the Schiit Freya +  tube based pre-amplifier.

Seems like it competes way above its price range.

Has anyone any direct experience with it?

Thanks

The buyer wants to keep it, I've offered to send him a refund twice! He's contacted the factory is all I know. They said to try new tubes. I think he's perturbed I sent out an untested unit, It played just fine a year ago. I should've plugged it in and made sure it was working. I even doubled the package for safer shipping.  Like I say I won't guarantee a tube anymore on a sale of a unit. I'll  have to make a restitution of some sort. 

I took it back. Got it today.  When you turn the volume it makes a noise, it's supposed to make this noise. Tubes are fine. Maybe the buyer wanted to try one out before purchasing one and He had an out because I didn't know he was moving the volume and he assumed it was bad and I didn't ask. Now the remote doesn't work the volume though. Im the fool. 

If the volume is relayed control, I'm pretty sure it will buzz via the remote. My Rogue sphinx does that and it's normal

Probably the best resolution with a flaky buyer, minus the remote problems. Try a new battery before you give up on it.
