No review?
Take all my posts and put them together and you got about 10 pages of observations and all sorts of review elements. No way the Yggdrasil beats the r2r 7. It was beaten by the M7 according to a couple of headfiers who owned both, including
@DACLadder.
In the current state of things, i have yet to find any flaw in the sound and i am nothing short of captivated by it. I would even bet whatever you want that some people would even say the r2r 11 beats the Yggdrasil all considered. Subjectively lets say.
Last time
@Currawong commented, he said they were so close, it was even not even worth picking a winner. I suggest someone lend me his Yggdrasil to get a second opinion. I have absolutely no interest in owning one considering i have never heard, besides stuff costing way over 10k, anything that sound as good as the r2r 7.
One very important thing to understand, and i want to make myself very clear: you need the whole chain for things to work. Don't ever think a dac will make everything by itself. And it requires matching all the elements, you need to have a lot of experience, patience, flair, and excellent hearing.
