Hot Schiit for Bifrost listener


Hi. I have a new Schiit Bifrost 2 it runs quite warm to the touch. Much warmer to the Rag 2. Is this normal?
I have a Denefrips Ares II and a SMSL M400 Dac here and thy run dead cool.
Is this normal for a Bifrost?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you, @! Yes, considering an upgrade to a Yggdrasil GS, Denafrips Pontus, Holo Spring DAC. Looking for better room decay, separation of instruments, and definition of vocals (classical).  

Don't know if this helps, but I have the original Bifrost MB, and it's warm as in slightly above room temp. 


Care to compare the Ares II to the Bifrost 2, I mean, leaving aside the heat issue?

Thank you,

Paul
