Buy the Yggy. It will save you a lot of grief and wasted money experimenting with other DACs. Nothing under $8k even comes close to the purity, the soundstage or the bass control.
Benchmark DAC 3B Vs. Schiit Gungnir Multibit and a question.
I currently am using the Schiit Gungnir Multibit DAC. I’m thinking of switching to the Benchmark DAC 3B. Does anyone have any experience or opinions with regard to both these products? I already have a Benchmark AHB2 Amplifier and would think the DAC would be a good match. The description of the Benchmark DAC says it’s designed to work directly with an amplifier. I’ve been using the Gungnir with a CJ preamp until now. Question is, is there still a benefit to using a good preamp with the Benchmark DAC?
