Need recommendation for CD transport (not Cambridge)
I own the CXC for 2 years now.Never a skip or click into a Yggdrasil.Sound is very good!! 
Need help with covering for Dueland speaker wire
I sure wouldn't do that.The main or one of the ideas is it's natural cotton diaelectric.Go with a different cable is my advice. 
Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable?
Been chugging along with my Duelund cables. All for a little over $200.Nice stuff! 
Transport for Exogal Comet Plus DAC

Is it worth adding a Schiit Audio Eitr?
You would be better off putting in the USB Gen 5 upgrade board to determine if you need the ISO Regen etc.I agree. So sick of all these decrapifier boxes the last 2 years and cost I'm going to add the board to the Yiigdrasil. 
New Yggdrasil - First (and second) Impressions
I heard the Oppo UDP 205 yesterday and in no way does it sound like the Yggdrasil. In fact I would prefer my Marantz SA15s2 I had to it in sound every way being a different purpose piece. I don't care for ESS chips configurations. The Oppo is a gr...

Hegel vs Rogue
I have the Rogue Cronus Magnum ll with Usher cp6371 along with the Yiggy and it's a great combo. In no way shape or form is the bottom end loose!Everyone will have their own opinions when a question like that is asked.You need to listen in your sy...
