Ok so by now some of you should be receiving the yggy.  Congratulations you have now heard a more recent version of the yggy I listened to at canjam.

However despite its well deserved praised (honestly I thought it was gonna suck but I was super wrong, )  there are certain things about the yggy that keeps every pirate here from buying it.  For me its mostly its size and the reputed belief that it must always be plugged in.  Also price I guess, but if I really put my mind to it I could probably buy one (who needs more than one meal a day ....or alcohol).

So at canjam before the reality set in that I would never own that amazing yggy/rag stack, I sat down with a pirate who told that schiit really wants to bring as much sound of the reference level gear to the masses. That sunday as I was leaving canjam, I saw Mike getting into his car and proceed to thank him for the building his awsome dac and how the combo made me rethink my opinion of the Ragnarok, he personally mention his desire to bring the tech to a more manageable price range for masses, but that I shouldn't get my hopes up for it being anytime soon (remember the yggy still hadn't even been released).

So I thought I'd start a thread here to speculate/ share info/ or just talk about what we would want to trickle down to the line.  I figure with marv and schiit being members they can keep our expectations in check and with many members being audio & electrical engineers we should be able to elucidate some possibilities no?

OK I will start  I kind of want a replacement for the gungnir that less wide (about the length of a macbook air) specs:
-1 AD R2R dac per channel
-usb gen 3
-close-form digital filter
-discrete JFET analog section
-good power supply that doesn't take forever to stabilize
