Schitt freya preamp hum- how do I get rid of this?

Well I cant say that there were no others failures just not immediate requests for returns for noise problems. After this rather unusual event I did a search to see if this seemed to be a trend and other customers had reported the same problems. Dont get me wrong I think these products represent a good value, but the types of noises being reported were unusual. In fact I kept track of the Schiit specific tubes, tested them again for noise/microphonics sold them and had no problems. 

I understand anecdotally that Schiit had some quality issues (either build,or design or both, whatever) in the past but that this has been largely resolved and they have been spitting out some affordable and robustly engineered products recently.  Must annoy audiophiles a lot.

Which leads me to think that they are taking notice and act accordingly. Perhaps its an on-going process and as with many things this usually takes longer than anticipated.

But this is the first I’ve heard of issues with Freya +. Maybe I blinked, or people do the right thing and return the product to the dealer or to Schiit.

And they must have sold at least a few hundred units worldwide since they were released a couple years (?) ago, so that’s pretty good.

I don't own any products by Schiit but something like Freya+ would be one I'd consider if only it was a dedicated tube pre.amp.

Its a tube. My Freya is dead quiet in all modes.

Same here — no problems with my Freya+

Maybe PS audio BHK tube preamp would be better than a freya. Although looking inside this it doesn't look that appealing the power supply is exposed and probably parties with all the analog crowd. Not sure why PS audio doesn't do a better quality preamp with a separate power box
