Yesterday the upgraded multibit Gungnir arrived. So how does it sound?

Like walking through a garden filled with many varieties of flowers, fruit trees and vegetables, where every bloom, every piece of fruit, every plant are perfectly shaped and ripe for the picking. Sweet scents filling the whole garden.

Is it worth $500? Hell yes!!

It was real nice that Schiit returned it in a new factory box. The shirt and coffee mugs were a nice touch.

Great post!
I agree 100%.  The DAC gets better as it gets older, just like you and me :).
 
However, I didn't get no free stuff - I'd be happy with a travel mug.

The Schiit engineer who put his shirt and coffee mugs down somewhere then couldn't find them would like them back :p

Congratulations! I purchased the MJ2 in December and the Gungnir MB in January and just got 2 boxes filled with schiit. Not that I'm complaining. Music has never sounded so good. Enjoy.

After saving some cash for the last 5 months I have finally placed my Gumby order. The Gumby will be replacing my Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD soundcard, so I am expecting to be absolutely floored. I can't wait to hear how the Gumby will sound paired with the Mjolnir 2!

You may wish to lay out some snacks on the floor, because once the Gumby puts you down there, you likely won't get up for a while.

I really hope someone answers my question. Did not know where to ask so I put it here because this is about the Gungnir. I'm going to upgrade my DAC from Modi 2 Uber. Maybe even the amp later. I'm torn between the Gungnir Multibit or the Bifrost Multibit. If I upgrade the amp I'm leaning toward the Lyr 2 LISST. So I really don't need balanced but the SQ is my main concern. It will take a little longer to get the Gungnir because it cost more but that is fine for me. Once I do the upgrades then this is it. The headphones I will be using is HE-400i. Just got them. I feel the DAC is important in the line or,most important because it translates the signal. From digital to analog. I want the best bang for my buck. I'm using the Magni 2 Uber for a amp right now. I have been over the specs of the amps on the website and the specs of the Magni to the other amps is pretty good. However, I know that specs do not always relate to sound. But still could not help to compare. So if the difference between the sound SQ between the Gungnir and Bifrost Multibits is my concern. Thank you. One note I have been all around the site here and did not see anything on this. Bifrost Uber yes but not the BM.
