Deciding to up my headphone system, I just got a Schiit Yggdrasil.
I was dubious since I was using a $20K tube DAC. I was floored by the Yggy! Incredible punch and detail. The tube DAC has a more subtle, romantic sound but the Yggy is not offensive in any way and is exciting. My whole experience has changed for the better.
I bought the GS model which used the level 1 module instead of the new level 2 but it is $900 less at $1600. May have it upgraded to level 2 for $550.
