Try an MMB2 and I'll buy it from you once you decide it sux or you need an Yggy.... I can “justify” (ha!) splurging on something like a Bifrost/64 or Yggy. ...
(Of course, I’m one of those weird “soundstage with live unamplified music properly recorded” dudes… )
Have had modi, mmb2, modius e, and bf2 via optical from TV with no issueHas anyone here used a Gumby, Bifrost, or Yggy as a TV DAC via Optical?
I want to upgrade from the built in Sabre DAC in my Arcam integrated amp. It'll be fed the TV via Optical, Blu-Ray player via Coax, and probably my music server via USB to a 2 channel setup. I thought I had read (on various forums) that some Gumby owners had minor issues on occasion while using it connected to a TV. Just thought I'd ask this group...
I know you've been waiting quite a bit for that Flux but it's completely unacceptable. Way too small to support the awesomeness that is Yggy.my God what a stack lol. #outofroom
....
you wanna buy this GungnirMB a2 w/ Unison before I send it back? It's a perfect match for your Mjolnir3.Try an MMB2 and I'll buy it from you once you decide it sux or you need an Yggy.
I wish it were easier to find live unamplified music in the wild. Symphonies and opera seem to be about it these days....

I can take it off your hands when you find a suitable Yggy stand/headamp....
jk! jk! it does look nice.
the flux is actually big af depthwise. look how much bigger it is than Gumby lol.
You should turn one of them 90 degrees then you'd have them aligned

I'm keeping the Yggy- that was Gumby's final resting spot before resale/return. Awesome DAC but Yggy is sexier and still upgradeable. About $400 more than the Gumby in my situation which was a tough call tbh.You should turn one of them 90 degrees then you'd have them aligned
No, Yes, so I've heard, and yes.you wanna buy this GungnirMB a2 w/ Unison before I send it back? It's a perfect match for your Mjolnir3.
And honestly the Gungnir a2 and Yggy A1 so so alike it's almost weird. I'm keeping the Yggy but Gumby A2 is a helluva value.
I hooked up Yggy to my tv via optical and it worked just fine.Has anyone here used a Gumby, Bifrost, or Yggy as a TV DAC via Optical?

He has good taste, rather than it tastes good, since I know that you would never put Carolina Honey [moonshine] into a fancy decanter unless-----
Finnegan being Finnegan.
My unsolicited opinion (is there any other kind?) is to match the size of your amp with the size of your other gear.1x GHorn vs 1x Rekkr
Things in common:
Where the GHorn wins (possibly):
- Both amps are BLACK.
Summary:
- It's got more power so it's absolutely gotta be better.
Well, the summary is not going to be Earth shattering. The GHorn is probably better. Does it deliver notable improvements over Rekkr? Surely it must. Moar $$ + Moar Bigger + Moar Power = Moar Louder so after applying the transitive law of audio, Moar Louder = Moar Better sound.
My Desktop Speaker Rig:
OG Piety HP amplifier
Schiit Bifrost 2/64
Seriously: I like it better and may very well pull this remaining GHorn off the Classifieds section and post-up the Rekkr. Or I may not as it is likely all audio-hallucinatory.
