Back to the DAC

@yyzsantabarbara You mention the Schitt Yggi, are you referring to the Yggdrasil?It's a bit confusing with the LIM, MIL and OG. Decent review here:

I am getting a bit bummed out dealing with a few sellers of used Bricastis at the moment, so I may give the Yggi a shot, particularly as Schiit has the 15-day trial period. Just to confirm, it is the OG you recommend? I may also look out for a decent (used) TT2

@ddafoe @bluethinker The Meitner is a bit pricey used and may be a tough sell if it’s not to my liking and there are no used Merason DAC1 (that I can find) currently for sale. Both look like interesting DACs from Europe, as well as Rockna. It sure would be nice if you could do an in-home demo with all of these!

@navyachts it’s all the same schiit. In my opinion, although these are decent DACs, they’re not on the level of your system. 

Chord TT2 would be good. you can add Mscaler later. TT2 is good value on used market and is relatively easy to resell. Check sold prices on hifishark. 

@blisshifi yes, we have chatted before and yes, I'm aware that the T&A DAC 200 is very highly rated. In turn, I just wanted to say I do not have any DSD content nor do I up sample. Regardless, how's pricing on the T&A these days?
