@UntilThen I read that Yiggy is really an update of Mike's landmark Theta 5, which I owned and loved. So you are carrying on a worthy tradition
I also have started to wrap my empty head around the concept of "balanced" Gumby and Yiggy. I have assumed, for example, the Gumby might just be the equivalent of 2 Bimbys, and not really needed for a single ended amp such as Euforia. Well, that's why I'm a lawyer and not an engineer. Schiit explains that Gumby and Yiggy are "balanced" internally in the digital domain and that is a major advantage. But they also explain that the balanced "digital" signal is internally summed for purposes of the RCA outputs and there may not be much difference in SQ between RCA and XLR outputs. I don't really know what any of that really means, but I thought it was interesting.
After I sell some of my iron pile, I think I'm probably headed towards Gumby. I would find it disrespectfully to try to equal such an esteemed HeadFier as yourself by trying to equal you with Yiggy
