Mytek Brooklyn DAC+ or Schiit Yggdrasil?

Frozentundra dacs are personal taste with emphasis on system configuration as WC1 points out.
Like Wc1 I also went through trying several digital front ends over a period of time some in two completely different systems with dacs ranging in prices of $8000.00 to $2400.00 and in the end I can tell you price has no bearing on performance.
Take your time and don’t be influenced by online fan clubs .

Mytek Brooklyn DAC+ won.  A coin flip.  Good enough between two good choices.

Picked up a PS Audio PerfectWave Transport, refurbished, at a good price.

All attached to my rehabbed Krell KAV300i.  XLRs between all.

The Mytek folks were terrific when operator error kept me from getting music to come out.  I sent them an email and my phone rang 5 minutes later.  We corrected my input source to SPDIF, I un-muted the Krell, and music has been coming out ever since.

Out of the box?  Call it a richer sound than my Theta ProPrime II.  Violins sound woody, as do upright basses, as never before.  I can hear the piano keys strike the strings.  I decided that I don't like the mic Joni Mitchell used.  Her voice isn't round and rich enough.  But I can tell.  And just think: it's going to get better.

I keep a disc on Repeat with the DAC+ on.  Amplifier off.  No noise, but everything should be breaking in.

Thanks for all the good advice!

I would check out the review in Audio Science Review on the Schiit dac. Very detailed review that was not very good. In fact did not recommend the unit.

Well, I listened to the Yggy with my own ears ... I didn't read a review ... and I sounded dang good to me.
