Schiit Reference Sytem review: Freya into Yggdrasil, into Vidar

For those interested in great sound, without the hi-priced "glitz" of expensive chassis work, just what counts on the inside.

It was going into protection constantly driving my big PMC. I even had a desk fan on it as it was burning so hot. Still happily own the Freya though, awesome preamp.

Had buddy's big Krell integrated go into protection every 5 minutes on them. Just got a DAC Cherry amp 3 days ago and it's rock solid on them. Loud & proud.

I would have mono'd them but they're not rated to 4 so I decided to go another route (the cherry). I decided that after borrowing my buddy's @titaniumhead Rowland 525 monos and realizing class d was the way to go on these. Sounds chewy and amazing on d.
