So in a direct comparison with a dac costing twice the Bifrost’s price, it held its own. That’s a pretty good recommendation of the Bifrost. If You’ve got a $2500 budget, as the thread title suggests, the Yggdrasil from Schiit is worth a listen.
Best DAC for around $2,500 or less
What are your opinions on the best DAC for under $2,500? Looking at the Schiit Yggy or many of recommend Denafrips so looking at their Pontus. Any thoughts on how these two compare? It might be misguided by I tend to think your getting a little more for your money with a direct to consumer company like Schiit and I know they are highly regarded for their DACS. Anything else to look at in this price range?
