I briefly considered justifiable homicide, but figured a normal jury would put me in the slammer anyway for spending more on a cartridge than most of them spent on their entire system. Now if I could get a jury exclusively of audiophiles...
We still have the ABBA and BoneyM punishments.Yeah. Really cruel. What's next? $3.99 earbuds and a catalog solely of rap? Glad I just banned the kid.
Shhhhhh. Don't tell anyone, but my deep throat source says a fully discrete, fully balanced Nexus and Continuity-based clock radio with high-precision time crystal. And the numeric display will be made up of patented white LED matrix that eschews light-pipes therefore basking the entire room in an intense white light to ensure that one wakes up on time by never allowing them to go to sleep. (Imagine 144 Magni 3s (not +) powered on in your bedroom room))
OK -- seriously. Jason has pretty much stated there will not be any replacement of Yggdrasil in the foreseeable future. They will continue to develop and offer modular upgrades, but so-far as a whole-sale re-thinking of that DAC -- not likely. They want to honor the investment made by those that have purchased an Yggdrasil. Plus, I'm sure it still has plenty of legs left.
Gungnir, on the other hand? Crickets from Schiit, IIRC. That usually means something is up.

just get a Yggdrasil GS (doesn't cost that much more than Gungnir MB) and someday there will be a remote control option for it. If (and its a big if) there's an Analog 3, then just upgrade then.
BoneyM maybe, but I didn't think listening to ABBA would be much of a punishment. But I suppose if I ever cross the line, and it does ever happen to me I'll just have to throw out an...I believe the phrasing is "jury of your peers". I imagine your peers should be able to handle a simple blind listening test of various tubes and identify what they are, so I feel that would be a reasonable test to implement when selecting jurors.I briefly considered justifiable homicide, but figured a normal jury would put me in the slammer anyway for spending more on a cartridge than most of them spent on their entire system.
