Delightful DAC Week :~)

[blankdisc]

I have had Yggy for quite a while. Sold BADA2 shortly after. Also had Hydra Z and prefer Yggy USB input more than Hydra-z output AES into Yggy. With hydra-z you do get more bass but lost the Yggy's Magic 3D imaging and instrument separation.

 

With Yggy in my system I have permanently stopped searching for a better DAC. I just don't think a better sound can be obtained without spending A LOT more.

 

Yggy does have its own sound signature (which luckily suit my taste perfectly) and not for everyone, so do give a try first. And yes it does need a good burn-in when brand new.

CMedia is not only only maker of USB interfaces for DACs. There are Amanero, XMOS, etc. If Schiit really wanted to, they could have upgraded the dated USB Gen 2 board in Gungnir... but that would really shrink the difference between Gumby and Yggy.

 

I remember that it took Mike quite a while to get the USB to its current level. I don't think he is interested in starting all over again. Plus imaging supporting two different sets of drivers. Schiit doesn't like that.
