Gungnir sound before and after multi-bit upgrade?

Can I get some feedback please regarding Schiit order wait time?

I have a Yggdrasil on order for nearly six weeks. I am patient (waited 5+ months for speakers and 12+ months for blue ray player), but the issue I see is that their web site continually changes with the "back ordered, orders placed now shipping the week of MM DD" constantly changing - for the worse - and obviously inaccurate to begin with.

When the date read "shipping the week of August 22" my order was in a few weeks before. 8/22 came and went. Their website date changed to September 14. That came and went. Their website date then changed to September 22. I was hopeful. Now, the date reads October 6.

I've contacted Schiit via email and they regurgitate the same response; that parts are back ordered. I fail to understand why they can't be more precise with the "when" aspect of my order. Again, I don't mind waiting, but do mind lack of information.

Any feedback (no pun intended or reference to Jimi Hendrix or Grateful Dead) is appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks Dave. I appreciate your well articulated response. To be honest, it was the feedback from you and some others on this forum that helped guide my decision to the Yggy versus any other DAC. I realize there are alternatives, however, I do want multibit and I don’t recall if there is any viable alternatives *at the price point of the Yggy*. I’d prefer to not cancel at this point.

I can and do remain patient, but I just can’t understand why Schiit cannot provide realistic dating. Updating their website every two weeks by pushing out the date another two weeks seems to be their normal modus operandi.

Thank you for the encouraging words. Appreciated.

@dlcockrum

Understood. I realize you have an "Exogal Plus DAC with their power supply upgrade". As I previously stated, it was the feedback from you and some others on this forum that helped **guide** my decision to the Yggy versus any other DAC. In the aforementioned context of the word, guidance can be direct, indirect, for or against it.

Consider the considerable back-and-forth communication you and I had in the following thread. I do consider all of your responses informative, genuine and well articulated.

Pissed at Schitt. Pissed at Oppo. Pissed at me.

I honestly think you ought to calm down; take a stress pill and think things over.

You have drawn an incorrect conclusion.

Dave, as I've already mentioned to you (07-12-2017 5:21pm), "I like your witticism :)
