I'm looking for a Schiit Freya Pre Amp in good working condition, it must be the "Plus" version.

I guess folks are hanging on to these.
I will pay full new price for a mint condition item.

You don't even see the previous version come up often if at all either.

Yeh, the Freya+ has been on back order at Schiit UK for over 6 months, can't get one for love nor money.

Rarer than a hard to find rare thing!

But any body like to part with one.

I think only option at the moment is to bite the bullet and import a 240v version from the US.....

If I needed a pre-amp that does it all that would be my play.

I have an enquiry in with them about doing this, but they are on Backorder in the States as well.
Schitt UK, who haven't had one for 7 Months, say any warranty/return to base repairs, for one purchased this way, would mean sending it back to California.
I'm tempted to do it, but my last item purchased from the States (Marchand X-Over) hasn't arrived and is 3 weeks overdue on a 6-10 day service, which is worrying.

I've had several items from Europe and China, on std mail, come through in half this time.

:rolleyes:

Indeed always the risk when buying from a foreign supplier. It amazes me how poorly prepared they appear to be from a production/availability perspective of what was always likely to be a very popular and sought after product.

Universal praise in all reviews and improving on the original, along with keeping the price excellent, should have had them making hay!

I'm speaking prior to the current situation of course where as now a similar issue would be more than understandable.

I've been waiting for some tubes from the USA for nearly 2 months now . . . . had a DAC come from China in 6 days including customs . . .
