I know it’s all about personal taste but would like to hear opinions as I’m considering these two brands along with MHDT, but since they don’t go through a dealer network we start with other opinions before clicking the buy now button. Anyone compared these two or one of with the MHDT Orchid?

Schiit offers a couple of upgrades. I am waiting to have my Gungy upgraded to Multibit and have the USB upgraded, too. Bob
