Schit Audio Marketing Department: Can We Give them a Hand?

@fynnegan Good point. 

If memory serves me correctly, wasn't there fairly recent case an American brand whose name was high offensive to another culture, thus creating a name change?

Looks like we're oh for three in the Schiit fan club so far.  And, yes, I spelled their name incorrectly.  

Attempts at humor can go either direction.  

Thanks for the comments.

@ghdprentice It appears that I may have overestimated Schiit's value as an A'Gon friendly brand.  My bad.

Sometimes my inner 9-year-old wants to come out and play and the urge is very powerful.  I should do a better job of putting "him" in the corner and taking a time out.

In reading your other posts, it appears that you are an adventurer.  While our pursuits are less dynamic, we've driven the wheels off our small motorhome since retirement in 2016 and take our bikes everywhere.  We've logged lots of cycling miles on those 30-mile, relatively flat road, adventures.  I also spend one day per week with my tech trying to keep good gear from going into the dumpster.  I've learned to never underestimate the emotional attachment owners have to their hifi gear -- especially those pieces formally belonging to deceased relatives.

Thanks for your contribution to what could be the least popular post in A'Gon history.

Thanks for the mild comment.

I was expecting brutal rebuttals with statements like: "Who's the dumb/dip Schiit that started this thread?"

That's what you were thinking?

In that case, thanks for taking it easy on me.

@valinar 

The intention was to inject a little humor into the forum.

Your comments, and sense of humor,  are very much appreciated.

@4krowme So, you're saying the turntable doesn't sound Schiity?

@garebear Good one.  Why didn't I think of that?  And, BTW, you're the first totally positive responder to this post. 😀

Thanks to both of you for posting.

Just wish I could go back and correct my spelling error.  I thought Schiit had 2 "i's" in it, checked the website to be sure of the spelling, and my reading glasses failed me.

@4krowme I don't get the power switch on the back, either.  Just wondering if the cueing can be "fixed" with some experimentation with dampening fluid viscosity?

Cool speaker project.  Looks like you're created a point source when the speakers are at the correct height.  I'm a bit of a speaker nurd myself.  I received a patent for The Open Line Source speaker about 30 years ago.  All 6'-4" of them are still in my listening room.  They've got a few "warts" but do get some things right.

@4krowme Congrats on the "fix" the Schiit. Makes me happier than a pig in ....

I've also found new life in O-rings and use them for a variety of uses.  They come in handy to replace D-clips on mechanical devices provided the stress on them is not overwhelming.  

Thanks for the updates.  And, participating in the forum.

So, can I assume then that someone who's system is maxxed out on these components as "Full of Schiit?"
