RE: I was an idiot!

You are not an idiot. We humble reviewers do the best we can with what we own. The new Schiit preamplifiers are so interesting they should be reviewed by the magazines who have broader access to equipment for comparison.

The Saga requires extended break in. At least 200 hours for initial reactions. I've lost track of the hours on my Saga, but it continues to improve in minor ways with time in use. Perhaps the midrange glare you experienced will diminish with more hours.

The Saga is a revealing preamplifier. If the recording is not the best, it will be a little forgiving and just sound ok. Quality recordings played through the preamplifier become musical audio gems.
