Can someone explain the differences between the 3 multibit DAC chips used by Schiit in their multibit DACs and the significance of those differences?
Here's the chip breakdown:
Model - DAC chip (quantity) - #bits
Yggdrasil - AD5791BRUZ (4) - 20bit
Gungnir - AD5781BRUZ (4) - 18bit
Bifrost - AD5547CRUZ (1) - 16bit
How does this relate to the resolution of the audio files played through it?
For example, how would a 24/96 file be processed by the Bifrost as it has a single 16bit DAC chip?
Thanks!
