Up for debate.
Pretty much.
Jotunheim can amplify balanced ins to balanced outs, balanced ins to single ended outs, single ended ins to single ended outs, and single ended ins to balanced outs.
The Bifrost is single ended only, so it would need to connect to the single ended ins on the Jotunheim, but could be listened to using either single ended or balanced headphones.
It is currently being debated in this thread which is more important, Multibit DAC or balanced DAC, because with the Jotunheim you can't currently have both, unless you order a Gungnir DAC or above, and now we are starting to talk real money.
Right now, multi it seems to be winning over balanced, but I have seen nothing that has ended the discussion yet, and no direct comparisons.
