I hear hum through the headphones,  

what do I do to fix it? 

You may have a ground loop. To fix a ground loop, 

try a ground loop isolator or an EbTech HumX. If 

it’s low-level hum and noise, you can use Lo gain 

to reduce it. 
There’s no sound for a while after I turn  

Jotunheim on.  

That’s perfectly normal. Jotunheim delays the 

headphone output for 20 seconds after you first 

turn the amp on. 
There’s no sound with the input switch  

in the top position. 

Do you have the optional DAC or phono card? If 

you don’t, you won’t get any sound.
Can I leave Jotunheim on all the time? 

Yes, you can.
Can I use both headphone outputs  

at the same time? 

Yes, you can, but be careful—if one pair of head-

phones is very sensitive, and the other is not, you 

FAQ

may damage the sensitive pair if you turn it up too 

loudly while listening to the other pair.
My Windows computer doesn’t see the DAC card 

via USB, what’s up? 

You may need to download and install Windows 

drivers. Go to schiit.com/drivers to get them.
I installed the USB drivers, but Windows still 

doesn’t see the DAC—what’s up? 

You may be running into USB port power  

management problems, bad cables, or any 

number of other things. Go to schiit.com/faq/dac-

problems and schiit.com/faq/usb-problems for 

troubleshooting.

It doesn’t turn on, what do I do?

doesn’t work.
