DENAFRIPS Terminator and Schiit Yggdrasil Evaluation and Comparison

As mentioned before that was a great review and only confirmed my suspicions.. One only need look at the hefty power supplies underneath the main boards staring from the pontus and up to realize these are quality units...

Being an Yggdrasil owner myself I’d like to see some direct comparison between yggy and pontus or Venus as they are more in my price range...

The Denafrips DACs for there complexity  are priced very reasonably no doubt taking full advantage of cheap Chinese labour...

Again thanks for the review...

Has anyone yet been able to do a direct comparison between a Terminator and an Yggdrasil  analog B version ? I recently had the upgrade done on my ygdrasil and it is a noticeable difference..  For the better... I'm not concerned with the USB upgrade as I only use the AES/EBU  input as I found it is superior to usb when using a reclocker.. 
Anyone?  

If you spend some time on the forums or a lot of time like I did you would see that the general consensus is that the AES / EBU input is superior to spdif.  When I bought my yggy in early 2016 schiit was going on about their new usb3 input which mine came with.. And then came the even better new gen5 usb.. And now apparently theirs another one in the works... 
I've had some one PM me on the DDC I use and he was reluctant to purchase it as he had the new "gen5 usb" .
Well a few weeks later I get another PM from thus same person thanking me as the DDC via AES / EBU totally beat out the new gen5 usb...
This made me feel really good as I skipped an upgrade step from schiit and still came out on top...
In case your wondering I use a Matrix audio X spdif 2 DDC powered with a Uptone audio LPS1.2 linear power supply.. 

RE, Reggy,

The Matrix only accepts a USB input.... although I wish it also accepted an spdif signal so I could feed my CD transport into it as well...

My transport to the Matrix is a windows based laptop via a Usb cable.. My high res and standard flac files run through Jriver media and I also subscribe to Tidal. 
After trying all the various outputs of the matrix to the yggy, it is the AES/EBU  that I stay with...
Is it the best output final word? I dunno, but it works for me ...and its definitely better than usb but digital coax is close to it..

One only need look at the really high end streamers and dacs to see that they sport not 1, but 2 AES/EBU input/outputs... YES 2 , one for each channel L and R..
Being the cheapskate I am I decided to build my own streamer...as you can see those streamers can get quite expensive really fast... but they have built into them what I have as external components, a linear power supply, reclocking and delivery of a very clean signal to the DAC so that it may function at its full potential ..
How does mine compare to a high end Auralic streamer .. I dunno to be honest...but I'd like to think it should be at the very least close ...

I use a custom made AES/EBU cable (7ft long-to eliminate reflections)  from the matrix to the yggy, the yggy feeds an LS26 via balanced cables, the LS26 feeds Bryston 7B3 monoblocks via balanced cables, which power Elac speakers...
