Disagree. Buy this DAC then pay Craig $3k for a nice tube buffer and pocket the additional $5-45K you just saved.

Lol, a bit better than mine
Marvey:
Not disagreeing, but less than stellar recordings actually sound better on Yggy than other DACs for the following reasons:
* Yggy still manages to extract more low level information than I thought was previously there. Low level information should not necessarily be confused with "detail".
* Yggy doesn't impart crap, i.e. digital hash, glare, weirdness, temporal grain, artificial warmth or syrup to counteract digital nasties, congest or compress difficult passages in music, etc.For example, take a recording that is bright and over-compressed. The last thing I would want is a badly implemented D-S DAC making the brightness even worse with glare and hashy shit, flattening the already flat sound, and removing any existing sense of bass texture.
Marvey:
FYI. 122 hours now. Yggy is starting to show signs of its true magic. I figure tomorrow.

I'm at 90 hours, any improvement would be a miracle, very happy of my purchase. You were right, Yggy is something else. :)p1
