Game changer
You don’t think you need this, or will care, until you try it. Dead simple to use, works perfectly and overcomes the two weaknesses of having schiit components: multiple mini remotes and tiny labels on the component’s “action” buttons. Currently running Wotan and Freya plus and especially nice for putting pre in passive and amp on standby when I’m stepping away for a bit. No more rack diving!

Excellent!
This is a significant product! Paired with my tube amp I now have a remote control (iPhone and iPad) for volume. I also have a three band PEQ that allows me to fine tune my Klipsch Heresy speakers. And the Mimir DAC sounds wonderful (I also have a Topping and Denafrips). Once Forkbeard is part of your system you will no longer feel the need to upgrade your DAC because the sound can be tailored to your preference. Wonderful!
