TheMaestro335.......Jeff, welcome to Audio Aficionado. . :wave:
I agree with you. The Yggdrasil is an astonishing DAC that delivers an amazing view into a musical performance. It will continue to reveal even more of its holographic presentation as your hours accrue. In my review of the Schiit Audio Yggdrasil at post #1 in this thread you may have noticed I allowed the Yggy to operate with a signal through it for over 550 hours continuously, but I can tell you that the bulk of the break-in happened in the first 200 hours. Beyond 200 hours the Yggdrasil matures ever so slightly such that you may not even notice without paying very close attention using the same music over and over again as I did. I suggest you feed the Yggradsil a digital signal and let it do its thing for at least 200 hours non-stop. Then, leave the DAC energized 24/7 whether you are feeding it a digital signal or not. You made a wise choice when selecting the Yggdrasil DAC. It is an especially rare audio component that provides an incredible level of audible pleasure. |
Hello Dan,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have been-streaming music through the player for about 10hrs x9 days. So glad to hear I can continue to hear and in this case see more improvement! What are the areas that continue to improve? Imaging, bottom end, depth? Regards Jeff |

Thanks Dan,
I totally understand and agree with what you are saying. Especially with vocals. Much more life like, breathy sound. Comparing to what I heard on Friday to what I heard yesterday I experienced a major difference in depth and layering. Regards Jeff |

Received the upgraded analog 2 Yggy back on Wednesday and it’s been paying music since. Today is the 100 hour mark, and I’m very impressed with what I’m hearing. The last few days were a bit all over from woolly sounding at first to a bit strident on day two. Less strident on day three. Day four she is smooth as silk and the layering is emerging nicely. Original Yggy sounded a lot like day three. There is a new smoothness and body to the music with the analog 2. Very pleased and curious whether I’m going to see more change. This is one of the best audio quality returns for the money in a long time!

Your upgraded Yggdrasil will continue to blossom as additional break-in hours are logged. Leave the DAC energized 24/7, even when not using it. During the break-in keep a digital signal going to the Yggy for at least the next 200 hours, either a CD on repeat, a music server repeating a playlist, or a stream from Tidal or the like. The rest of your system can be off but keep the Yggdrasil with a continuous signal on it for the next 8 days or so. After that time you will have achieved the lion's share of break-in and the Yggdrasil will reveal it's true potential. It is a fabulous DAC. |
