Gumby vs Yggy


So I recently tried a Schiit Gumby and was somewhat disappointed that it really didn’t sound much better than my Arcam irdac. I’m sending it back and was wondering if the Yggy would be a more significant upgrade. Perhaps my system isn’t revealing enough to appreciate the difference. I’ve downsized from B&W 801 S2, Threshold amp, Theta pre to my current setup: SVS Ultra bookshelves, Parasound amp and Schiit Saga pre.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

It seems many on the Gon are happy with Auralic streamers... but I bought mine new and found it to be extremely buggy and frustrating.  I returned it after about 10 days of attempting to debug it via email exchanges with their limited customer support.  YMMV.
