That's disappointing...mine is in for the upgrade right now. I wonder how I can confirm they're not shipping it to me with the bug? I guess I'll ask.

The following are some forum posts I happened upon elsewhere: "The USB Gen 5 24 bit rumor is a fact. The card advertises it can do 32 bit when it cannot and some drivers do not work. Specifically it is a problem for Roon / microrendu. The issue opened in the Roon website is closed as a software/hardware issue with the Schiit usb gen5." "For what it's worth, I have the Gen 5 USB upgrade installed on the Yggy by Schiit, and I have not experienced any issues using Roon and the Ultrarendu with it since it came back. This 24 bit rumor was made known when my unit was at Schiit for the upgrade, so maybe the fixed whatever problem there was with it? I can't tell. There was no official confirmation of what Schiit did about it, because they did not respond to any of my e-mail inquiries regarding the subject. Still, my unit does not seem to have the problem so water under the bridge... blah, blah, blah..." "Then it's not a 24bit playback issue. It plays 24bit just fine. The issue you mentioned would affect 16bit playback too. I don't understand why it was labeled as a 24bit problem." |
Just got mine back, and it's playing 24-bit 44.1kHz and 96kHz WAV just fine through my UltraRendu using Roon. @parsons I think you're Yggy is "fine" too. There is some recent comments on https://www.head-fi.org/threads/schiit-yggdrasil-impressions-thread.766347/page-404 which I believe speaks/writes to the issue and all reports I've read are favorable. |
