Chord Tax =)

Kinda looks like the volume knob on a hafler ha75, which is actually likely a similar price lol
Iāll take a volume knob over having to use stupid glass balls to adjust the volume any day lol, this is a step forward

M0N aināt a fan of the balls, huh? lol
I actually like the one in the Mojo; not so bad imo.

$100 for self-installation might be a lil bit costly. Iād probably just save up for a DAC upgrade. Then again I have no experience with Schiit products.
That chord page was deleted. I wanted to know how much power it had

It didnāt say. All it had was a price. Iām currious who it is designed by though. Yhe amp stage of their integrated stuff doesnāt tend to be great and this is clearly designed to go along with the qutest so Iām currious if watts had much to do with it
Itās definitely the other guy because Theyāve pushing their feedforward topology since the etude launched which apparently sounds very different from old Chord Amps

That is actually my main concern as well. ESS chips arenāt easy to implement. So it will be interesting to see what the end result turns out to be.

Jason has said a few times in interviews he axtualy likes some of their new ess implementations better than their akm ones so Iām kinda curious. I do trust his ears a decent bit tbh
Hasnāt he also said he has liked things like the heresy or magnius? That doesnāt really inspire confidence to me lol

I havent heard either one so 
But tbh, I was under the impression that they were solid for the price
This is cool, went under the radar
Would stack well with the hyposos, I donāt need it but I really kinda want to try it lol

Interesting, I know you like the Hypsos, not a lot of details on the page.
Lots of marketing buzzwords but the hypsos was solid, I hope this will be as well

Smol but mighty = immediately interested. Anyonr know much about the company/designer and previous products?
Ima be honest, read that page (not much info) I dont realy get what the hypoos is. Its a clean power supply from the looks of it? But then why a knob?
8w into 60 Ohms balanced so possibly a cheaper Susvara choice.
But 44 Ohm output impedance is very high, though not necessarily an issue, and it does imply minimal feedback,
You going to pick one up to pair with your Hypsos?
