It has been a week and a half now and I recall the Mimby + Jot being more energetic than the Gumby + Jot. Frankly, I'm not even completely sure what I've gained from the Gumby. What's going on? I've been keeping both the Gumby and Jot on constantly.

It's been a pleasure reading all this Gumby thread through over and over again and enjoying Gumby's superb sound, but I have to let my Gumby go. So if anyone wants or knows someone who may want a mint condition 230V Gumby (gen2 usb), then shoot me PM! Also available stacked with MJ2 (ifi nos 5670 tubes). Thanks! :slight_smile:

You may be hearing more of the music and less of the high end. Stage should be wider and instruments more resolved.
Also depends on your music source and other factors...

Net, GMB has (at least) two more bits of resolution than the Mimby.

Happy Listening!

It is amazing stack yes, but I have to downgrade. So no yggy for me. Traded my HD800s for Aeon flow open to try something different and will buy mimby and vali2, when I get this stack sold. Sometimes there are more important things in life than dacs amps and headphones :laughing:

IMG_0008.jpg I just got a Gumby and I am being asked if it is a version 2. I can probably find out tomorrow unless someone has some good tips that might help.

The existence of Gumby version 2 is only a rumor being thrown around by some members on Head-Fi. Schiit has said nothing about it. I haven't even seen anybody claim that new Gumbys sound better than older Gumbys.

Thanks, I really did not know a newer version existed, I have talked to Jason about other things but not that. I doubt seriously this is a new version, people have asked me a couple times so I sought an answer.:)

Related to the Gumby version 2, the rumour came from the fact that the new Version of the Yggy (2) starts with a "B" letter in the S/N of the unit. It seems that the latest S/N's of the Gumby starts with this "B" letter also. So, a lot of people is making this association and they are assuming that Schiit rolled out a new version of the Gumby.

Mine starts with the letter B as well. Was wondering. So all the Yggy 1s started with A and it has been confirmed that all the Yggy 2s start with B, even prior to the announcement?

This S/N certainly starts with B in the event that letter is significant.
