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

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.

Yes the Yggy is a very good DAC for the money, and it all comes down to personal preference on it's sonic presentation. I found the Yggy to be a little forward though very detailed, kind of similar to Chord DACs. Great soundstge, very quick, yet a touch too detailed....but might be perfect for someone that likes that signature. I got fatigued listening after a few hours.

I love the Pontus II (now 12th), and as jjss49 suggests I found the Pontus II more engaging, mid bass had more "purpose", richer mids, and more of a warm sound. The addition of the Denafrips Iris DDC made everything more than a little bit better.

I have not listended to the Gustard so cannot offer an opinion.

Can't compare the Yggi since I never heard it. However, since others are mentioning Gustard, I can whole heartily recommend them. Whether it's the X26 PRO which I have, the R26 or the new A26, I seriously doubt you will ever come up close to similar sound quality for anything at that price range or even 1k more. And the connectivity available on these beat most if not all, at any price.
