Schiit Yggdrasil Less is More, is it a quality dac ?

Personally, the DACs with the Schiit Multibit filters were the first (and still only ones I’ve heard) that sounded like music to me. I have a multibit Bifrost and a Yggy.

They have also written their own USB code and implemented it in the DACs (Unison) and by the end of the first quarter are expected to release their "Urd" (~$1,200; USB-C only), which is a Cd player, but also has a USB pass through port and will provide their implementation of the USB code on the send side, to the Schitt DACs. They say it makes quite a difference. Fingers crossed it does.

i personally liked the pontus more than the gumby and yggy... pontus has a warmer tone, more solid bass, with equal air and imaging ... other excellent option in the lower/middle dac segment is one of grannyring's modded mhdt tube buffered dacs (orchid, etc.)

just shows that one really needs to try these in their own system to determine what works best given individual room, system and preferences

Myself have heard 90% of most things out there being in a multi state audio get together the Yaggs is detailed and I owned the latest in 2020. It’s just so neutral 

i couldnot get over that the Pontus2 is very good ,some out there are having issues with a glitch the Gustard as a modded I looked in depth great build quality 

one thing to mention ,it’s sounds very good But a substantial upgrade is adding a 20 mm , 2.5 amp T ,synergistic purple fuse and any decent power cord , the Pangea sig mk2 with Cardas copper wire is $200 for a 1.5 m cable ,I owned all of the above in my 2nd system and the Gustard I still have it has 6 settings to also Taylor the sound ,realistic a solid 10% improvement ,and I found a guy in NY that gets them within a week or so and $600 ,very surprised .3 others gave me the tip 

on the Power cord and fuse . In my experience true reference dacs over $5k 

which I am saving for the T&A 200 dac for my main system .

It's probably real nice sounding, but no I2s to connect my Jay's cdt2-mk3, so I will never 

...know.
