Uhmmm... so one should choose between using a DAC at "full power" and enjoying it for a long time?   But it seems that many audio equipments are lasting 20+ years, consider for example the Theta Digital DAC. If I had to keep Yggdrasil always on, only to change it after 5-6 years, I would be...

Two question, about DAC in generals:   1) DAC Burn-in: I could play some white noise, to excite the whole range of frequencies (0-22 kHz), at maximum volume (Windows+Player). While doing so, should I disconnect the cable between the DAC (output) and a turned off amplifier (input)? 2) Leaving...

Interesting impressions, thank you! 

Thanks for the update, tomorrow I'll send you my home address for shipping. Please send me the tracking code as soon as you'll ship the item (obviously with insurance).   Best regards.

Ok. September has come, the new Yggdrasil little brother is out, and I'm wondering when those who ordered the bigger one on the first half of July, shall receive it.   Any news?  

  When did you order it, and which voltage?

  And classical?

  Do you prefer the LCD-2 or the HD 800 with that combo?

Yes, I heard that many users going from Windows 7 to 10 didn't need to upgrade their drivers, probably because the architecture of the two OSes is very similar, and this is a good news for Yggdrasil.

115 VAC, I suppose?

115 VAC or 230 VAC version?

What do you think about compatibility between Yggdrasil and Windows 10 when using USB? Have you had any problem, other that this one recently occurred?

  Great news! It would suck to send an Yggdrasil back for repair...

Obviously, impressions of the stack will be really appreciated...
