Ok All you Schiit Eitr's


just kidding,  anyway have you experienced that it needs a "break in" period to sound its best?  also any experiences with different digital coax cables?  thanks for any info.

Not to be flip, but seems to me just about anything electronic and audio-related benefits from "break in".  Typically, before that's accomplished, either the bass will be MIA and/or the sound will be closed in - HF somewhat rolled off, ambient cues weak or absent.  Having said that, I can't say I noted a huge improvement in sound with break in of the Eitr.  Maybe it was the exception to the rule, or just didn't have a significant impact, or maybe it was because other system changes made around the same time masked it.  

Tried a few different coax cables on the Eitr including a DH Labs D-750, a Stereovox XV2 and a Blackcat Silverstar! 75 (v1). I use the Silverstar full time.  I thought the Silverstar, in addition to being more detailed, also presented a more fully fleshed-out soundstage.  

Hope this is of some use.   

Oh, by the way, re your thread title?
Yes I am and proud of it.  ;-)

hey ghosthouse thanks for that info!  It will help because I just received one to go with my Bifrost 4490.  Another question if I may I've been using their Pyst USB cable with the Bifrost since I bought it (2yrs)  Which cable do you think would be more critical of the sound, USB or the digital?  

Anyway thanks again!  By the way who is that you in your Avatar?
