Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range?

A used Ayre Codex.
I bought the Gungnir (non multibit), and the Ayre was better, not a huge difference, but it sounded tighter and more coherent, and a nicer soundstage. Also, a little more 'natural'.
I'll probably have it upgraded soon (they seem to be having a backlog at the moment). 
Some have said the Yggy and the Codex are almost identical in reproduction quality.

@mechans
A used Gungnir non multibit is about $600, add another $500 to upgrade to multibit.
New, they are $1300 or so.(multibit)
