They've taken a whole new design path with this one and looks to be pretty cool.

Wow, you just beat me to it, i was going to post this.

I don't own any of their products, but they have the best marketing in the business. I could read their site for hours. Well maybe for several minutes

At last !

This should be a great DAC and the price is excellent. I'm waiting for a review against the PS Audio DSD.

Here is the company's official announcement as well as a few links from other sites on this new release...

Schiit announcement: Schiit Audio, Headphone amps and DACs made in USA.

Ultra High End: Schiit Unviels Flagship Yggdrasil DAC | Ultra High-End Audio and Home Theater Review
Digital Audio Review: At last! Schiit release multi-bit Yggdrasil DAC | DAR

This has a very different implementation. Does not use typical Delta Sigma DACs. Uses 4 20-bit AD DACs and an AD SHARC DSP engine that feeds the DACs. Also uses USB 3.0 input receiver. Does not do DSD. Priced at $2,299 with 15-day money back guarantee return policy.

Anyone wanna buy my Gungnir? It's only about a month old.



Edit: just to be clear, I'm kidding, I love my Gungnir!
