Mytek Brooklyn DAC+ or Schiit Yggdrasil?


Currently:

Theta Pearl
Theta Pro-Prime II

Krell KAV-300i (but possibly Schiit Ragnarok - see that discussion)
Spatial Audio X2

If I wanted to treat myself, which of these comparably-priced DACs should I get?

Ive heard both and prefer the Schiit Yggy ...
it is just a bit more organic sounding ... its got the Analogue Devices chip as I'm sure you know.

dont be put off by the lower priced Yggy than the Brooklyn, you probably know that Schiit sells factory direct, so the $2500 price tag would be more like $5000 at a brick and mortar store.
my point? great value
"I would check out the review in Audio Science Review on the Schiit dac. Very detailed review that was not very good. In fact did not recommend the unit."

Well, I listened to the Yggy with my own ears ... I didn't read a review ... and I sounded dang good to me.
