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 have the bel canto dac 3 VBS which was sent in an upgraded to the 3.5. I find myself using the Cary 306 SACD as my DAC as it’s more musical to my ears than the BEl canto.. but the Cary clicks and pops loudly through my speakers as it changes modes.. 
I have a schiit Yggdrasil on the way.. after getting the schiit modi multibit dac, I had to see what their flagship is all about..  I can tell you that the 250 dollar modi is quite amazing.. so very musical with good resolution.. 
I having fun switching the different DACs and  enjoying the music

After having the Yggdrasil for the last 1.5 years, The Bel Canto Dac 3.5 for several years..  The Yggdrasil is far more musical and enjoyable in every aspect. You can’t tell it’s “digital”
