And yes, I do know who the Mike Moffat you referred to in your original post is (OK, not the hockey player I pictured in my post above, also named Mike Moffat) and yes I have read (and enjoyed) his humorous comments posted on the FAQ of his website and yes, he was kind enough to allow me to listen at length to his top two products in his DAC and balanced headphone amp range (YGGDRASIL/RAGNAROK) at the last RMAF.
And, in fact, the combo sounded VERY good(as I have posted on AA in the past), especially with HiFIMan's new mega-buck HE-1000.
In fact, it may well be equal in SQ to my Audio-GD Master 11 DAC/Headphone amp, which ALSO is a multi-bit DAC which will NOT play DSD! Folks who have heard both side by side in the same system claim they are in the same class.
But then, even though I do not even own a system that will play DSD files, other than an SACD player which hardly counts, I am NOT taking a hard, cold position that DSD, or any other digital format(OK, maybe DAT tape), has no value because...
I know better.
And so does Mike Moffat.
But he has the YGGDRASIL to sell, so...
Oh, and at $2299, it sounds like a pretty good deal to me.
Oh, and me being profane and aggressive?
My first reply had a 'smiley face' ;-0
And I not the founder of a company named SCHIIT!
OK, I DO OVERUSE ALL CAPS AND EXCLAMATION POINTS!!!
My bad. :-(
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
