RE: Xiph Foundation Leader Calls High-Res Audio a Waste of Bandwidth

Yeah. The Bifrost gets better after some burn in - the bass becomes more articulate - and detailed, treble sweetens right up, and there is some hellacious imaging you are in for a treat with (life sized instruments, etc.). Be sure to use a first rate SPDIF cable (preferably a true 75 Ohm cable 48 inches or so long) and the performers are going seem like they are in the room with you.

It plays like a recent vintage $2-3k DAC.

Really - consider the USB interface if you want to really blow your mind. Playing Amarra or Audirvana to it is tremendous!

I have a feeling that Schiit is going places! :)
