This <redacted> DAC is getting me all hot and bothered

I've already shelled out for the Yggy though so I don't have as much to think about.
Would this be a conclusive statement that the GOv2 outperforms the Bifrost Uber Gen 3(?) ?

Good job. I was wondering though this could also work for amps and headphones right? Perhaps you or someone else can rig up some interactive visual database to discern sound sigs at a glance. Then provide more in depth information with measurements and such when you click on one of the components. Could be a great tool for matching components and tuning your system to your liking.

I know it's probably a mamoth undertaking but i reckon it can be a very helpful tool to lots of people.

Great chart. Excellent choice of x/y axis IMO and I like the color coded "bang for buck". Appreciate all the work that wen't into it.

I have a Yggdrasil but I'm super stoked for [redacted]. If it is as good as the chart suggests it will be a great day for music lovers cause the price/performance bar is going to get completely annihilated. They are going to sell a schiitton of those if it's 90% as good as Yggy at ~1/3rd the price. Hell, I will probably pick one up myself for my office setup.

Have anyone here heard a Mark Levinson No 36. Its a old dac from around 1992. Just found a deal on it, but i cant demo it. Considering your guys really like the theta and SF's im wondering what you guys think of this one.

Nice chart. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this is worth at least forty-six pictures

Thank you.

Any place for Emotiva's DC-1?

Is there anyone in socal who owns this Yggdrasil dac? I'd love to get together and listen to it. We can also compare with the EAR Dacute and Chord QBD76HDSD (sounds completely different compared to the Hugo!). Please PM if this interests you as I am curious about it and hopefully you are too

Very clever representation of how DACs sound, looks like most of modern DAC's "play" on the right hand side. It seems that we need more reasonably priced/currently produced DACs on the left middle-top side, to give us "flavors" to choose from. That <redacted> is very intriguing.

Would love to see "Best Amps for Sennheiser HD800" converted to something like this chart.
