Schiit Gungnir DAC - anyone have one of these?

I didn't know jack about Schiit until this thread, but after a little research this company should be impressive. It would be hard to go wrong with Mike Moffat of Theta digital designing the DAC.

If you try one get it from someplace like Audio Advisors so you can demo it for a reasonable period of time without risking much. I think I have a fairly laid back system due to my tube integrated and although the Gungnir gave me some 'wow' moments I found it hard to listen to overall (glare?)for more than a little while. I settled on the PS Audio NuWave which I think is way better for approx the same $$$ and nicer to look at to boot.

Dragon 1952 - thanks for the feedback - what's your system consist of? (please include interconnects used)

Many Thanks

OK....here goes my credibility :^ /
Ming Da MC88-C integrated (KT-88 tubed w/active pre-amp), SB Touch w/ Welborne P/S and EDO installed, PS Audio NuWave connected to Touch via custom USB w/ separated power conductor, NuWave to integrated via Blue Jeans LC-1 IC's, Martin Logan Source speakers w/ Kimber 8VS wire. Please don't dis the BJ LC-1's, they are excellent IC's and I've been in the hobby for nearly 40 yrs.

dragon1952 - never dis someone unless you are above dissing!

Insight is better than no site so understanding your environment is paramount to understanding what performance I MIGHT expect with differing components.

BJ's gets a lot of good press here and until I hear some I'll make no comments.

So how do you find the dynamics of the PS Nu Wave compared to the Schiit?

Since PS is heavy into power I would assume they would be very dynamic also

I just heard the Mytek and it was spatially very impressive and very dynamic, but not as musical as the Chord QuteHD, which I heard yesterday.

Maybe the dynamics in the Schiit is what fatigued you?

Thanks
