If anyone from Schiit is reading this: please ignore all the excited anticipation and speculation of ship dates in posts above and do not ship my Yggdrasil until it is good and ready.  Thank you that is all.

+1 What he said, please do not rush perfection.

Anyone have any idea how this would compare to the Auralic VEGA? Just wondering if it would be considered an upgrade or downgrade for my setup. Obviously I know it's not out in the wild yet but any thoughts would be appreciated.

Perhaps an oversimplification but
 
your source is ESS 9018 and opamps
 
Yggdrasil is AD5791 and discrete voltage buffering
 
I'm sure both meet the bar for gamut of standard tests
 
more or less comes down to what you think of R2R vs delta-sigma, and if you think DSD matters

I'm order #30840.
 
I would have them side by side and judge for myself.  If all goes well, I plan to have a Bricasti M1 and the new Metrum Pavane in for home trials all at the same time.  
 
Out of the three 1 will stay, 2 will go by by..

Well said, I couldn't agree with that sentiment more.

One of them has to meet Mr. Nelson Pass and pair with the winner of this amp down:  Will it be a Mike Moffat / Nelson Pass hook up?  We'll see.

Wow.  Maybe you were the first at 30761, since there were only 3 ready to go on Sunday according to Mike.  Mine was five after you, but I also have a Ragnarok on order.  Maybe they'll wait a bit and ship them out together. That'd be fine with me.

Order #30761 here

He said 30761 a page back.

My order was 30797  Nothing yet but still hopeful for a shipment soon.

 

[DACLadder]

I'm in as well... Order # 30866 @ 13:14 PDT.   Maybe miss the first round but in the meantime looking forward to reviews.
