Schiit Reference Sytem review: Freya into Yggdrasil, into Vidar

@georgehifi

To your thread, which involves a Freya, Yggdrasil and Vidar, all of that can be connected via balanced cabling, true? I’m assuming Vidar in mono. If so, and the owner of said equipment desired to go that route, how would the Loki be connected within the systems three components? Hence the reason I stated " to bad the Loki doesn’t have balanced connectivity in/out".

You can use these for the Loki, if your insistent on using the balanced on the source and amps. otherwise use single ended everywhere.

I owned the Vidar for a month and had to sell it. 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. 

my big PMC

Which model were these?

EB1i is the model. They’re frightening beasts. 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.
