I just cut out 2 small 1" x 3/4" x 5" pieces of leftover wood.
Just place them under MJ3…I set them back so you dont see them.
Pulled out one to show.
Too cheap to buy feet!!
LOL!
Now u see it!

Wondering if anyone has the mj3 paired with the Bifrost…either Og or 64.
If so…results??? Tia.
I do, but I thought I posted my thoughts before. Although I might be thinking of what I posted on Head-fi.
It is a great pairing, but I am going to o be upgrading to a Yggdrasil MIB next year. Over on Head-fi, owners of the Mjolnir 3 said it scales well with better DACs. I will hear it for myself next year.
All my thoughts on the Mjolnir 3 have all been with it being fed by the BF2/64.
Thanks…guess I need to reread the thread. Good to know…the yggy should be great with it!
If you have the opportunity to purchase a Mjolnir 3 you won’t be disappointed with it being fed by a BF 2. ZMF Atrium Open, Arya V3, HD660s, Starry Night v1, Moonlight, and Koss KPH30i all sound good to me when paired with that combo. I listen to a bit of everything, but today was a Blues listening sessions with the Atrium Open hooked up to the MJ3. Let’s just say that I got lost in the music.
Feeding my MJ3 from several dacs…all good.
The amp is good enough to discern differences is attached stuff…
iFi Pro iDSD - Nice due to its variable level output capability, DSD and multiple filters AND Tubes if ya wabt to go there and fully balanced.
Schiit MB 2, the latest. SE outs but a steal at its price level and great pairing.
Soekris 2541. R2R Sign dac…balanced as well. Another great dac. Good pairing.
Schiit Modius E…Fully balanced another performer for a low cost.
MHDT Orchid…a warmer combination, works well with HE1000Se’s

So back to letting my MJ3 passively cool, as I was hearing some odd changes to the sound recently when cooling it with a desk fan. Everything sounds just fine after letting the amp get to its normal steady state temp. I will try not to burn myself on the fins (happened once when I first got it due to my hand slipping) .
Well,
I have sold the Orchid MHDT.
Still have the Soekris 2541, the Cyan 2 arrived a few weeks back NOS only, also have the Schiit Modius E.
All others sold etc…
Have a Gungnir 2 coming. Will audition with the other dacs here and see if one goes or stays.
I am totally impressed with the Holo Cyan 2. Really a decent dac. Good all around here. Second place but really close is the Soekris 2541.
One thing that can sway you opinion on these is the difference in the voltage out. the 2541 on Se is 2,0 vrms, the Cyan 2 is 2.5 volts …so when ab’ing there is a notable difference in the SPL…making it appear one is “better” than another.
Matching these closely they are really close…a tad different in the “holographic” dept for me…Depending on which music I am playing one or the other is just fine,
Looking at costs and what you get with the Soekris makes its maybe for some a better deal.
Stay tuned for the new Schiit Gungnir 2!
Curious about your impressions of the MJ3 paired with the Gungnir 2, as well as how it compares to the 2541. I had the 2541, and it was a really good DAC.
