Schiit Gungnir DAC - anyone have one of these?

The gungnir dac I have in my other system and compared a lot of $1600
And under dacs. I had the ps nuwave there was no way it it better then the Gungnir.the glare most definitely was due to breakin .it is far more advanced .the nuwave at 150 hours was pretty much runin just look at the two parts wise ,no contest in build quality.,breakin .the Gungnir needs a minimum 200 hours just to start to settle in,inreality I gave it a full 2 weeks 350 hours and still
Minute improvements at the 400 hr mark in resolution .digital operates at such a low level power wise that
These devises can take past 400 hours to fully settle in ,depends on size
Of caps ,dacs ,receivers transformers,also a comment vs the Bifrost which is excellent For the money ,even with the usb2 and uber package,it does not have the same clock regeneration as the Gungnir,or as advanced a analog output section To the same degree.the gungnir is a better unit as it should be that extra $300 goes into mainly the parts layout look at the two big transformers
And a dual differential output stage as well as Dual AKM dacs the bitfrost has only one, For better Separation and processing.now you know where the money is going. It weighs a solid 10 lbs. and a bit more resolved,and refined.

Audioman58 - at the end of your post you said "a bit more resolved and refined"

Was that in comparison to the Bifrost?

Was that improvement worth the additional $300 - in your opinion

Thanks

"just look at the two parts wise ,no contest in build quality"

Give me a break...."no contest"?

It us noticable better dual dacs better separation ,two huge cradle transformers.class A analog section is much more involved when you put everything extra in the circuit.it weighs 10 lbs for a reason ,also the patented re locking circuit itself more resolution.
I heard them both ,the Latest Gungnir with USB2 $850
Is noticably better top to bottom .i owned the Luxman 06
And several others this dac is very balanced sounding retail this is a $4k dac all day long without the markup or hype.dsd audio big marketing,I find in many instances a good master 172, or 192 kHz recording superb
And every bit as good Try the Gungnir ,it has a 15 day money back!!

I've owned both and examined the build quality on both. Like or dislike is subjective, and if you wish to claim way better build quality or parts that's up to you. I wouldn't call the transformers "huge" and dual DAC's is meaningless as far as build and parts quality. The NuWave does have a huge toroidal transformer that takes up half the enclosure, like the Gungnir it also has class A fully discrete analog section, weighs 4 lbs more (since you brought weight up), I doubt the Adapticlock is any better than the Perfectwave clocks. I'm not knocking the Gungir's build quality but to say it's 'way better' is pretty ludicrous.
