Comparing Bel Canto and Schiit DACs


I've just picked up a brand new Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby). The company only gives you 15 days for in-home trial before you lose the opportunity to return it. As it's not quite broken in yet, does anybody know how it may compare to for instance a similarly priced used Bel Canto DAC 2.7 once broken in?

Thanks.

I did not look for other brand I have a good experience with Thetha where Mike Moffat use to be, theta do knows what they are doing.No initial impression on Gumby yet?
Andbaron how many days before they ship your Gumby? I ordered one last Wednesday.Laura said it will be ship end of this week, 
Ghosthouse, I got my Gumby yesterday , although they are backordered, They are nice enough to send me one.Initial impression it’s very good, I also requested them  to put me first, if there is a return. This is a keeper...
So far the Gumby it gets better and better everyday, I only have it since 2/13...I used the xlo cd burn in, I don’t leave it 24/7 on. Iam very please on what Iam hearing ..it works well with my system...
If it’s true Gumby is 90% of yagdrassil , maybe that’s the reason why is so good...after four days , Iam really impressed on this Gumby, is it worth to get me onother yagdrassil for $2399 for my main system or just sticks with Gumby.The thing I like about Gumby is the analog sound and more,it has big sound stage on my system.
Gdhal True Iam getting use on the sound, what I mean by getting better and better everyday is , it opens up more, like bass, highs, a bit of extension , it becomes more clearer, this Gumby is good, I can sense analog touch on the sound...
1graber2 , me too , maybe 90% too high, there is also a comparison , by audiofriends it was a blind testing, they choose the Gumby 2x thinking it was yagdrassil....
