I've also got a new-to-me (4 month old) Yggy 2 baking in my high-end headphone system - Stax SR-009 headphones, "DIY" T2 amplifier. I've been in a digital desert for me the last few months, with my original Yggy sold as I upgraded my SOTA Nova turntable, and iMac (where I pull FLAC files off of) dying shortly after that. Finally I'm back up and running with the Yggy 2 and a beautiful new MSI GS75 laptop. I'm digging it! Actually, digging it a LOT so far. And I'm plenty surprised that the better FLAC files can really give my SOTA rig a good run for the money (hard for a vinyl junkie to admit). The Yggy 2 is definitely better than I remember the original version. Not by miles, but still a meaningful difference. But still not sold on the USB 5; seemed a bit bright and lean when I tried it at first - running through my old Audiophilleo converter for now, but I'll try USB again after more run in.
