I don't think he ordered directly from Schiit Audio US

Correct! Ordered from Schiit Europe. Not as fast as US.
In this case they made some false promises about keeping stock, had to wait for new batch to arrive.
But what is a week extra for all the fun to come.

 

[Alcophone]

Ah, my bad. I have become fully US centric.

It's OK, it's not like you are the first or only one.

 

[GearMe]

So, if you upgrade there will be a new serial number on it when it returns home?
I already have a serial number beginning with a C......

The 'C' was a one-off in honor of Costanza...

 

[Alcophone]

Connnnnnnstanza. Sorry, I had to.

 

[sam6550a]

B-stock, perhaps.........?

Not certain, but the "B" on Gumby might be the Gen 5 USB incorporation.

 

[45longcolt]

Question for Jason - was the Ygg that tented Mr. Harley's trousers fitted with the upgrade?

 

[bosiemoncrieff]

I think I'm going to hang onto Bimby for the time being. Perhaps I'll be ready for Yggy a year from now.

That's it indeed.
I have to think about the upgrade though and find a sponsor for it.
Uncle Toad is quiet.
Yggdrasil is so good as it is that I wonder if I would have thought about upgrading weren't it for Mike and Jason to make a big deal out of it.
So now I have the second best DAC in the world and upgrading to the best is a goal in itself.
Another course of action would be keeping the "old" one for Constanza and buy an "new" one for myself.
But as things happen in this household she would be the first to claim the new one as hers.
Well, it figures because she has much better ears than I have.
Maybe I'll get to hear it in this lifetime. Who knows.

 

[Pietro Cozzi Tinin]

I take it Schiit-Europe will do this surgery as well?

 

[433521]

The "B" means USB type B.

All I can think is they are finally coming out with a fully powered over USB type "C" recepticle! No more wall warts!!!! No more power plugs!!! Just power off the same pc you use for music!

 

[alpovs]

They could have incorporated an Ethernet input with 802.3bt capabilities, so the Yggy could be fed and powered by a single Ethernet cable from a PoE switch. That's a dream!

The most expensive, fully balanced catheater...in the worrrrld.

 

[SeaWo|f]

I now have "fully balanced catheter" suck in my head.. Not even sure how that would work.
