As do my wife and I at home. Visiting my son gets us things like this.
Nothing like having someone with a doctorate in chemistry making such a drink and all you have to do is sit back and enjoy.
I’m jealous of your son!
I can only make schlong latte art since I’m so horrible at it haha

I don't know for sure, but I doubt there are many Yggy owners who started out with OG and subsequently "upgraded" to LIM or MIL.
My Yggy has undergone many upgrades over the years, from OG A1 to OG A2 to Yggy+ (chassis) and also to USB5 and then Unison.
I also bought LIM boards and listened to them for 6 months. I then switched back to OG A2 after 6 months and, to my taste, OG A2 is vastly superior to LIM. LIM sounds deeply veiled in comparison. I don't imagine I'll ever listen to LIM again.

Me, too. The level of musical detail in the "new" Gumby (pre-discontinuation, with Unison) is just tremendous. I'm using HD800 headphones that are highly resolving; all nuances in the music are revealed. I haven't looked to upgrade gear in years, except for the new Gumby that replaced my old, 5-yr old Gumby B which still works, it was just approaching its end of warranty. So it's the backup.Gumby owner here who listens with headphones : That's music to my ears and dampens my FOMO...until such time that I decide that the speaker system needs a top-end DAC. For the moment, my primary listening is with my cans.

FTFY...[Reg. TM; © bcowen: 2021.]... LIM sounds deeply veiled in comparison. I don't imagine I'll ever listen to LIL again.
The back story on the number 4 is in this post from Jason, below. Scroll down to the section "Naming, Cosmetics and Other Frivolities":I was told by a Dealer, back in Theta Digital days, when I asked, that there is no such thing as Gen 4, the number 4 having somewhat odd characteristics.
2022, Chapter 10 Troublesome Thoughts Or, Curing Tube Nervosa, Part 2
EDIT: TL;DR:
"The name. Why Lyr+ and not Lyr 4? It’s simple. We don’t like the number 4. Mike has never liked it. He changed the Theta Gen 3 to Gen 5 on purpose. I thought he was kinda nuts, until we had all the trouble with the Fulla 4. Boardhouse issues, end-of-the-line AKM issues, delays, price increases, firmware glitches…you name it, it had it. You notice it went to Fulla E real fast? Yeah. Nothing we make is ever gonna have a 4 on it ever again."

I have no idea what all those abbreviation/acronyms mean except that you are enjoying the music...Well done, sir!My Yggy has undergone many upgrades over the years, from OG A1 to OG A2 to Yggy+ (chassis) and also to USB5 and then Unison.
