Whats diff between. Ht bypass vs using a passive connection-unity gain


Some preamp manuf adverise ht bypass, and some say u can use a passive output(unity gain).

Freya does not misrepresent itself. Neither does Schiit misrepresent the Freya.

This site has nothing to do with Freya.

You did not perform proper research. Own your error.
That’s a good question.

Could the Schiit Freya in passive mode at full volume act as ht bypass?
. .with no degradation in SQ signal?

I don't see why not :-)

Iow agree with drussell
Hey drussell, i said i made a mistake.  Did u not read what i wrote.  Facts about freya remain the same.  It is not a great preamp for ht use, despite ht references it made in their manual.

The words "home theatre" are not in the owner's manual for the Schiit Freya.
Schiit clearly states that preamp can be used for home theatre use, see the ‘choosing preamp and amp’ section of website.

its misleading if its not a good idea to use for home theater.  For me, it appears dangerous, so i plan to replace it.
