Schiit Yggy DAC is . . . wow

When the Schiit YGGY+ LIM DAC arrived, I was genuinely impressed (shocked is a better word) by its sound quality.  It delivered sound quality that exceeded my expectations and, more important, sounded better than my current DAC.   

The LIM DAC setup was easy, though I do wish the input symbols were larger and easier to read.  I use one USB input from my Infigo Auto IS-1 Streamer (uses Audiovana) and one Toslink input from my LG OLED TV.

The addition of the SCHIIT YGGY+ LIM DAC to my audio system has substantially improved my sound quality. I immediately noticed my system sounds much better.   The music is clearer, bass is more powerful, and imaging has improved.  I like it very much.  

Currently listening to an 11 year old Yggy. If somebody has a better DAC within $10k I’m listening.

Some have wondered if I was on the payroll for Schiit since I post so much about their gear. I have had the following Yggi DACs

• Yggi+ LIM
• Yggi+ MIB
• Yggi+ OG
• Yggi Singular (or Byggy)

They all sound different. Even Schitt says that on their web site and the way Schiit describes it is how I hear it.

The LIM is rolled off and could be a great match with brighter speakers. Superb bass. I used it with the bright RAAL SR1a earphones which could also use a bass boost. 

The MIB is not rolled off but it lacks a bit of the excitement that I want,

The OG is a wonderful DAC, and I am shocked I sold it, but it was the right move. It is the Original Gangster (OG).

The Byggy is the most revealing a realistic sounding DAC of all the Yggi's I owned. I loved the preamp, ForkBeard, the 3 analog outputs and the fact that it could be turned off without having to have a long time for the DAC to settle back to top form.

I sold the Byggy because I got the imersiv D-1 and that does everything the Byggy does but much much better. This DAC is the one that people are now discovering and a lot are buying. The MSRP on this DAC is $12k. Send me a DM if you want more info on it. I have a thread on A'gon about my discovery of this DAC.

Welcome to the Schiity way...

I ran a blind A/B comparison with a Cadillac MSB and a yggdrasil sometime ago. 3 out of the 4 guys in it repeatedly picked the yggdrasil.

Your wallet didn't get robbed and..... You can do a secret laugh now or a very wide grin  cheekus maximus, when you see a msb or dcs guy.

If you can match the yagdrassil they will perform. I have the gungnir Iam using Cambridge cxc as transport , this combo sound good, when I use my Raysonic 238 as transport the gungnir sound went to the next level. I did not know it is this good.
