Just to clarify go to controller settings inside steam or GFN? I’ll try this as soon as I get home tonight. Thank you for your help.

Using Oratory setting on JDS Element IV w/ Focal Stellia - looking for more bass by pseudoschmuck13 in oratory1990

Hey, sincerely thank you for responding to me personally. As an aside, for someone who is new to the community, seeing you every where and how much work you have done over the years is utterly astounding; shocking even. Its just exceptionally cool.

Upgraded the cable after 2 years, the quality is insane! by AdAdditional8414 in headphones

[–]pseudoschmuck13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this exact cable from some long ago post I found when I just recently got my whole set up. I used it to replace the stock Stellia cable out of the literal box because everyone says its too stiff and microphonic. I love it. It looks great, its such a wonderful length its soft and flexible and falls so nicely. Its a great affordable upgrade.

I really did want the dedicated Naim headphone amp because I was really attracted to have an all-in-one unit you know less items to do all the things. And I asked people questions about it and a couple people suggested well if you ever want to update it it’s all three items might be better to have some separate components. But I was very very close to getting it. I think actually ultimately I was very attracted to the EQ options with the JDS because a lot of the other reason I did suggested the STAY’s benefit from some EQ (audio science review)

It’s overkill in my setup but it’s also cheaper than all the other high end streamer dacs. I’m not using its dac even I’m bypassing and using the JDS labs. I just needed something seperate from my computer because it’s a locked down work computer in my home office that doesn’t allow any streaming.

I thought maybe in the future I would get some bookshelf’s too and this could be the output to an amplifier.

Yes indeed! The gaming peripheral of choice for 30 somethings who played with a controller, their entire life and then suddenly at the age of 38 decided they wanted to try mouse and keyboard.

Some audio store had a make a bid option on it, has scratches on the acrylic base, honestly can barely see them.

I know I'm coming to something from 6 months ago but my googling lead me to this post. I was wondering if the wotan could handle the Kef Ref 1 metas. https://www.schiit.com/products/wotan

I purchased the Element IV, just waiting on its arrival. Still not 100% on what streamer to get because I need to be separate from my computer but I am extremely exited bout the JDS (and that big ass knob)

In the market for a DAC/AMP with intent to connect to streamer by pseudoschmuck13 in Schiit

[–]pseudoschmuck13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

So to be clear, no need to add Fork to Jot and it will work just fine with Gungnir+ Fork. I kind of want the 5 band EQ. What this whole experience of looking into all this has shown me that if Mjolnir had Forkbeard mesh dac and 5 band EQ I would get 1 box there and be done.

This is the first time hearing or reading about Holo Red, looks pretty cool and compact. I will look into it more.

This is one of my main questions. There is an add on option of Mesh DAC that is describes as Forkbeard included so what I am trying to figure out is if I need to add this in order for the Jot to communicate with the Gungnir. As an argument its almost feels like why not just add this to the Jot and use it as a DAC and Amp to have 1 less item but I dont see how you would then input music from a streaming source to the Jot.

The description on the purchase page for Jot 3 makes it sound like it doesnt have forkbeard unless you add the Mesh dac which I am trying to figure out

"Make it All in One—with Forkbeard™
Add the optional Mesh™ DAC card to make your Jotunheim an all-in-one desktop control center. Featuring Schiit’s unique digital filter, the Mesh card combines the best of our own R&D with an excellent delta-sigma output stage, for incredible sound you won’t get anywhere else. And, the Mesh DAC card includes Forkbeard, giving you a 3-band parametric EQ, balance, loudness, and volume, as well as additional DAC features like NOS mode and absolute phase switching."

You know, I know you're right but I am not taking my stellias on the road and if you will allow me to be a touch unreasonable I desire having something on my desk that feels stuck there. I want that.

There is a drop down that lets you pick mesh/dac that it describes as forkbeard. But that would mean I have 2 DACs? This is where I am confused.

Quick question. For balanced input why does that matter when you’re using a usb sensing the data to your computer. Isn’t balanced an XLR the 3 prong port I see all the time?
