Whats diff between. Ht bypass vs using a passive connection-unity gain
OP,My points are these:1. Schiit does NOT market this as a "home theatre bypass solution". Two lines speaking in general terms about a product class at the bottom of one page on their site does not constitute marketing. Find me one print/online ad... 
Tube pre w/ HT bypass?
There is a site out of Norway that maintains a good list of integrateds and preamps with HT pass through.

What jperry said:  The words "home theatre" are not in the owner's manual for the Schiit Freya.

Freya does not misrepresent itself. Neither does Schiit misrepresent the Freya.This site has nothing to do with Freya.You did not perform proper research. Own your error. 
Schiit - shipments stopped?
@audio2design: you couldn't be more right.

OP:If you read my response from 3/12 at 2:47PM, two messages after facten, you would see that yes, I did read his response.And I stand by my assertions.The Freya+ is no more inherently dangerous than any other piece of equipment that is used in a ...

At 0 attenuation, the signal is, effectively, passing through.It's only "risky" if the operator doesn't understand the concept and how it works.

Seriously?Is this some campaign against Schiit?Or are people just incapable of taking responsibility for their actions?If you don't like it or know how to use it, why not return it?

The unit is not a "poor design".You don't want to accept responsibility for your actions.Why not return it?

If the unit is so dangerous, why don't you return it?

There is nothing in the manual because it's not designed or intended for HT use.Is it capable of HT use? Apparently.Are you on your own and responsible for your actions if you choose to use it in a way that it was not designed or intended for? Yes.

integrating a highend tube preamp into ht is a nightmare!That depends on the preamp. You have to understand that the preamp is not designed to be part of the signal path.Either the preamp has a HT feature, or it doesn't. If it doesn't, than your...

HT pass through is a feature.Unity gain is a state of 0 amplification/attenuation.I cannot speak to wiring/specifics but I believe this:A HT pass through will remove/bypass any amplification/attenuation from the signal path. Think of it this way...

If the unit is so dangerous, why don't you return it and launch an investigation with the appropriate division of the FTC?
