I Initially started reporting my impressions of the Yggy last week on head-fi. My impressions were positive, but I dared to say that I was not seeing any improvement on my modi2u.

Eventually, my account was banned and my messages were deleted from the thread.

head-fi is unethical.

I can't wait to see the HF mods and Jude in person at CanJam.
it's not going to be pretty, maybe a pyrate would like to video/Vine it from the floor?

Do you hear a difference now?  If not, do you want some help with what to listen for?

You left out the "previously banned member" part. I didn't believe you then, even less now.

"I spent $2300 and hear no difference and am very happy with my purchase."

Why don't you return it and send me $2000?

Bullshit dogma, all the current mods disagree with the notion of properly built DACs sounding the same. Same thing here, to an extent, but at least we won't delete your posts out of disagreement. Grats on the purchase, I'm glad it's working out for you, regardless of your reasons for keeping it.

BTW, no need to get defensive. It is what it is. If you don't hear a difference, maybe you will later, maybe you won't. Such are the ways of the force.

Right, apologies to Mr Claritas. I think I get it what he meant by 'previously banned member' and I am also afraid I understand the moronic way head-fi's 'previously banned' aggregation works.

Either way, I'm totally cool with the fact I am not hearing any difference and in no way would I imply that people who do hear one are wrong. I'm just not in a state of denial about my own hears, that's all :P

The Yggy is a great product, which goes perfectly with my Rag (which I had for free). Sounds great, has tons of inputs and should be future proof. I may not hear any difference but the math behind it sounds kind of fascinating to me. So all in all, I'm not sad at all to have dropped $2.4k and will be keeping it.

just my .2 non-audiophile engineer cents.

PS: Phase inversion does make a difference tho.
