I'm close to 100% sure I'll buy Yggy when it becomes available (unless I get laid off or my house burns down etc...i.e. all stuff that happens everyday to peole I know -- yes, I know this is cheap middle age luxury consumption, something my kids will point out when the box shows up).
This level of DAC is total new land for me, I've never been here before and have no idea what I'm doing. So I'm doing this on trust and I'll learn, but actually having the machine on my desk for a few weeks is the only way to find out. I have started reselling audio equippent last year, so I have leeway from my wife to take a look, since I can get rid of it a not much of a loss at least in the initial period (and hopefully for longer, since people won't want to sell).
I have paid quite a lot of attention to DAC design discussions, but I've learned enough that I know that I don't actually know what's important. Yggy seems to measure well by INL standards, so I'm happy to pay for that. I'm not at all convinced that 'closed form' time domain filters matter at all, at least not because they are closed form or time-domain.
Once I have Yggy for two months I'll know what I think. I hope it brings out more HD800 detail.
