You may have to wait a bit for DAC to settle down.

how long has it been on?

@JK47 An hour. I just wanted a taste, it’s now just burning in quietly.

I find Yggdrasil GS to sound best after the sacrifice of 42 virgins on the night of a lunar eclipse

....or after about 48 hours. Settles in mostly after about 24

GS is also a lot more listenable cold than A2. The transformation from man into werewolf is much less aggressive. It already starts as a hairy man and just combs the hair and brushes fangs a bit.

Also @ChaChaRealSmooth's virgin count is incorrect. Schiit manual suggests 1 virgin per bit and so 4x 20-bit requires 80 virgins. This isn't that big a deal if you have a nearby Comic con

@roshambo123 I agree, even with only a tiny bit of warm up it sounded not fucked up. I’m sure it will sound even better still in the next few days.

Doing some late night listening and I’m having some serious oh shit moments. My previous DACs did a good job playing recordings of music. This is just playing music.

GS is the best DAC I've heard replaying my vinyl rips

Mine will be here Monday. I’ll be happy to play it at room temperature, because it’ll be -5F out when it arrives…

@Qildail It’s 13F here right now. Ridiculous.

Enjoy. It’s a fantastic DAC.

Once you go Yggdrasil, you never go back. I’ll be curious to see your impressions with LIM, but methinks you’re discovering what many of us love about GS.

@MellowVelo I probably won’t swap LIM in for a few weeks, I want to get used to the sound of GS first.
