Are you hinting at an upcoming Vali 2 launch? :) I think you said that twice.

I guess I never thought to ask this.

I think my love for Gungnir's intensity is well known, does the GMB maintain that same intensity? I dont really recall people saying the same thing about Yggy.

Gumby's intensity is 5% less than Gungnir (which hit hard almost like a Gen V). Maybe power needed to be rerouted to the DSP or the shields from the warp drive.

Yggy does hit hard like the Gen V, but it's not bassy. I don't think anyone mentioned this aspect about Yggy because it was taken for granted.

Thanks for the info Marv, can't wait for your review. I have to live vicariously through other people while I wait the two and a half weeks or so for my Gungnir to get to Schiit, get upgraded, and get back to me. No DAC for 3 weeks is pretty rough.

Multi-bit Gungnir only required 2-3 days to get up to speed. Keep in mind that Yggy when new required 7-10 days. Now it seems about 3-4 days, so it's likely the MB Gungnir would require even less after a certain time of usage. If you decide to leave it on, I'm sure the MB Gungnir sucks less wattage.

I guess I'll entertain questions for now if any.

Can you give quick comparison between GMB and Master 7? and Yggy if possible?

Master 7 vs. Yggy comparison: http://www.changstar.com/index.php/topic,2007.msg54840.html#msg54840 (This is Master 7 with the crappy VIA chip. AGD recently upgraded USB to Amanero which most likely is better.)

Super comprehensive review of Yggy vs. Gungnir coming up because of popular demand. Please wait a few minutes.

Gungnir wins because you can buy one of the black chassis Gungnir and buy the $500 upgrade. Everyone knows black components are 25% better.
