Switched from Yggdrasil to Gungnir Multibit.

Based on accounts of the Gungnir sounding more "mellow" than the Yggdrasil,  and reports that the latter takes months to deliver, I've switched my order.
i currently own a vintage Theta Pro Prime DAC that similarly has a more "romantic" presentation, and think I'll be happier with the Gungnir.  From what I've read, it's close to the Yggy in terms of definition, and for the price it's remarkable. (Although price was not a prime consideration.)
I'll have 15 days to change my mind.  That's barely enough break in time to make an informed decision, but it'll have to do.
Any opinions?

Gdhal and kalali:
Forgive my ignorance.  I’m more of a musician than a technophobe.
I’m connecting my Oppo player which I use as a transport to the Gungy with an optical cable. I have a vintage Conrad-Johnson preamp which only accepts RCA plugs.  So I guess I wouldn’t be able to avail myself of XLR cable.

Why not contact Schiit and get their input on your problem with the Gungy? 
They might just have an answer.

I’ll try that, Bob.
I’m not sure what they can do, though

This thing sounds fantastic in anything other than classical.
Great in a lot of classical, too.
What a dilemma!

In a previous post I should have said I’m not a technoCRAT, not technoPHOBE.
I probably am the latter.
