Gungnir sound before and after multi-bit upgrade?

I'm also curious about this. I've read the multibit calms the hot high characteristics. I actually placed an order for the Guby to mate with my Mjolner2 which I really like but I canceled the order after a long wait for "back-ordered parts to come in". Oh well. I do hope to try one in my headphone rig someday.

That's a good way to put it. I can't speak for the Gungnir but it's true for the Bifrost Multibit. There is a certain rightness, a natural and organic sound quality with the Multibit upgrade. (I know, cliché audiophile-speak, but true nonetheless).

WTF - Thanks for the feedback. Did you purchase a "stock" BiFrost and then upgrade it to Multibit?

Hi Ghosthouse-

I had an stock BiFrost that I then upgraded to Uber, and then multi-bit, when it became available.

It has been over a year, so can not give many of the fine details, but:

1. MB was a much bigger upgrade than Uber.

2. Like wtf, the thing I remember the most is that there is a "rightness" to the sound. It just has the sound that the real thing, or at least the sound of my vinyl rig.

3. It started me back listening to my system, something that had really stopped up to that time. This has continued for 17 months now. I can’t wait to get home at night and get into my chair.

4. It was so good, that I bought a Yggy. For that price, to have the "best" of what really is quite amazing (the MB BiFrost), was irresistible. The MB BiFrost is now in my office system, as the previous DAC was unlistenable, once I had heard MB. Even the Red AQ Dragonfly, as good as it is, sounds wrong to me (for my road rig). I am hoping Schiit can come up with a MB USB DAC with low current draw for my iPhone rig, although I suspect AQ has some patent protection on the USB receiver chip that might make that impossible.

Bottom line: I would not own a Schiit DAC without MB, now that I have.
