Schiit Ragnarok Problems (Low QA)


Just got my Ragnarok,

current setup:

Mcintosh MHA-100
Marantz HD-DAC1
HD800
LCD-3

For my surprise the volume knob is fully disconnected and cannot be connected back without being loosely and that means that for controlling the volume i literally just use the bare metal connector to increase/decrease it.

The Amplifier make horrible noise when turn the volume up or down and the music cut during this operation.

The headphone cables are great, also the Amplifier make these noises without being connected.

Really disappointed from Schiit, their sound might be great but the built quality is subpar to the Mcintosh or even much cheaper gear.

unfortunantley ill need to return it :(

I would call them and see what they say first. A loose knob is one thing, but a staticy volume control is another
There is probably an allen screw on the volume control knob to tighten it to the shaft.  Probably just worked loose in shipping.
