Not to mention that this sort of hyperbolic praise does nothing more than undermine the credibility of those who objectively assess the Yggdrasil as a great DAC.
Very true...it does nobody any favours, and too much only leads to the inevitable future backlash against the product. In the case of the Yggdrasil, I am prepared to believe it is indeed a fine DAC, maybe even a game-changer, but that's based on level-headed impressions from people such as yourself and Negura. Quite frankly - excited, breathless hyperbole spouted by some others is more likely to turn me off a product than encourage me to try it out.
