Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade Well after trying the Yggy to different amps and now even preamps it reacts slightly differently to all favourably but it seems to dislike going my 300B direct the most, adding a preamp improved some things but ultimately transparency was again sa... | |
Does anyone have a Schiit Yggy DAC? Its supposed to be very warm. The nature of the AD1571 DAC chip is that it runs hot. It is a military/ aerospace use chip. Which means they are capable of extreme duty. It wasn't even really intended as an audio chip but for some reason they impl... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade Your ignoring the point I am making, thanks for insulting me. Instead you try to blame my approach to the issue at hand. I never stated the DAC was faulty, nor did I assume it was. I heard many different things from many different sources so I am ... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade @tvad I stayed off forums for years just because of members like you, the moment someone had a comment thats bettered yours you swoop in and make a comment towards me in an insultive manner and then pat "hsw" on the back. What kind of childish beh... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade @tvad Really, thats what you are gonna do, ride some elses coat tales and make pokes at me for some reason? If you were so smart why didnt you say so. Its not the first thing that comes to mind of all the potential things that can cause any type o... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade @ hsw Very interesting, that might explain the rather lack of power behind musical images that you are used being bone shaking and very authoritative. I recall when modding the amp I actually increased the input resistance to 1k. I’ll have to spea... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade Yeah thats what they say but it works it just fine. What about when you feed almost no signal to your speakers, or no volume? isnt that no wattage? They are just stating what they believe would be a good all around minimum to work a variety of ge... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade The amp mates up very well with everything I have put to it directly. And yes it has the volume control option. It is also heavily modded with the best parts. In fact I had an Ayre K-1XE preamp before, it was more transparent and better sounding w... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade Thanks, I was hearing different things like the bass improved notably in A2, and other aspects. This is a real trickster. I have read so many similar and different opinions about the A1 and A2 but not many from both A1 to A2 owners. | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade I already have the A1 version. And I dont feel like spending another $2600 USD plus duties to Canada. The A2 upgrade would make more sense if members actually stuck to the point of the thread. Thats what I am trying to do, determine the difference... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade Apparently rumours have it that the A1 is lacking bass, I agree. I am trying to get others to confirm its character from A1 to A2 to see if it is worth the upgrade. Right now Its not exactly what I like. There are other traits Yggy has that some ... | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade I used the Yggy's XLR outputs with adaptors to rca cables direct to my Assemblage ST300B amp | |
Schiit Yggdrasil A1 versus A2 Upgrade I have been using coaxial from a CD player for the first little while to listen to as thats what was broken in being its a used DAC . So I wanted to get a good listen before I made the switch to USB and computer as my source. The USB has never bee... | |
Does anyone have a Schiit Yggy DAC? almarg You realize the holes in the top arent actually exposed. They have been blocked off. Seems to me why Schiit recommends leaving the Yggy on is to maintain a minimum temperature inside and the cooling holes were actually allowing too low o... |
