It’s fully balanced, and costs more than the Schiit dedicated preamp — so, is it better? Meanwhile I’m missing out on the JFET....but is it balanced? I can’t tell — does anyone know if it is? If it’s just some kind of summed balanced output then forget it, my speaker chain has to be balanced throughout. I can pick up a BAT used for a much higher price, but damn I’ll be mad if it doesn’t make much of a difference. Can someone help me? schiit web site says it is fully balanced (or at least "pure balanced" and "inherently balanced"): Pure Balanced, Differential Topology Mjolnir uses our exclusive, inherently balanced and differential Crossfet topology—the only circlotron-style topology in a headphone amplifier (well, except for Ragnarok.) It’s balanced in and balanced out, with a custom 4-gang RK27 Alps volume pot—providing end-game performance for a mid-level price.
