Schiit yggdrasil + Less Is More vs. Denafrips Pontus II


Considering adding either the Schiit Audio Yggdrasil + Less Is More or the Denafrips Pontus II to my system. Anyone have any direct comparison with these two DAC’s?

Haven't head either.  was strongly considering the Schiit but decided to go up to the next level.  Denafrips seems to me to be overhyped so I would definitiely listen to it rather than trust reviews.  

Does Schiit still give free 30 day trials?

Hello Jerry, Thanks for the reply. What DAC are you using, if I’m not beung to forward...The Yggdrasil + LIM ships in 1 - 3 days, but unfortunately Schiit only offers a 15 day return policy and a 5% restocking fee and I’ll pay $50. in return shopping.

Amazon has the Denafrips Pontus II for $2018.00 + $30.00 shipping but I’ll have a 30 day easy return. However the unit ships from China and has an estimated delivery date of May 24th - June 15th.

I found a US dealer for Denafrips and he’s carring the Pontus II - 12th Eddition. The 12th addition has upgrades. New larger encapsulated dual toroidal transformers, a steel plate between the power supply and the circuitry and ships within 2 - 3 days. Unsure about returns I’ve emailed the dealer for more information.

I’m seeking guidance, would appreciate any comments from anyone who has compared these units.

soix, Thanks for the recommendation. What is your experience with the Gustard R26? Have you heard the Yggdrasil or the Denafrips Pontus II?
