| My New Magnepan 1.7i's sound dull and lifeless on the top end...why? I had the LRS for a while and liked them so much I stepped up to the 1.7iI find they would run OK on a 25 watt tube pre/power amp (Cary Audio), a 50 watt tube integrated (Jolida), but they shine with big SS power (Adcom GFA-365 mono-blocks).They s... | |

| Schiit Freya damage by giving it an electric static discharge on the volume knob. FWIW, I have recently sent back two, yes TWO, faulty Schiit Freya+ pre-amps.This has nothing to do with your issue other than there possibly being some over-arching quality issues.I know folks love the Freya and Freya+, and the passive and SS buff... | |
