I have an R200i as my main amp, into ATC SCM 19v2.

Have had Soekris 2541 recommended.

I went for the Gustard A22 as it suited my taste, and price.

A good DAC for the money is Schiit.

Though a Bifrost would probably sound better than what you have, I would opt for a Gungnir- very close to the Yggy.

To name a few well regarded companies that produce DACs.

get the Halo and send it to me to upgrade.  It will better anything mentioned above by some large margin.  Since my company builds reference audio components you need to tell us what type of sound you like otherwise all the recommendations are useless.  I can tailor the sound to your liking with upgrades.

We build R2R tube DACs but some of the non R2R DACs compete but have a different sound in direct comparison.

 

Happy Listening.
