Comparing Bel Canto and Schiit DACs

I've just picked up a brand new Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby). The company only gives you 15 days for in-home trial before you lose the opportunity to return it. As it's not quite broken in yet, does anybody know how it may compare to for instance a similarly priced used Bel Canto DAC 2.7 once broken in?

Thanks.

Should also have mentioned that it must have balanced outputs when I made the post above

After having the Yggdrasil for the last 1.5 years, The Bel Canto Dac 3.5 for several years..  The Yggdrasil is far more musical and enjoyable in every aspect. You can’t tell it’s “digital”

I have the Bel Canto 2.8 DAC right now.  It has about 300 hrs on it and it’s really quite amazing connected to my Lumin U1 transport.   That being said, I’m giving the HoloAudio Spring 3 a try when it finally gets delivered.  I’ll keep which ever DAC ends up being best, and sell the other.  Either way I figure I won’t lose much on the resale.

looking forward to the test!
