I am sure you compared the two and came to your conclusions. Cheers.

Yes I have. I brought my Bifrost and cans over to a friend that has the Gungnir. In the world of DAC prices these are both a steal.

Hey guys. Lyr 2 or asgard 2 > alpha dog/400i?

Would there be large Differences in bass texture/extension/impact?

Not in my opinion. But you will get better sound staging and dimensionality with the Lyr 2 and the right tubes.

The difference will be more about tubes coloring the sound Most of the time a SS amp have better impact
I vote for lyr 2 anytime and tubes rolling is great to make you feel like you have a new amp , never heard the asgard tho :rolleyes:

Personally, I don't feel the need for a new amp once I've got something that sounds right. I guess it's "Different strokes for different folks."

It's been a long hard road to learning to control my impulses when it comes to audio. Now for the rest of my obsessions.....One part of my OCD at a time.

Sounds like you're knee deep in Schiit, or just want to be. I'm sorry but there is no known cure.

It's so pretty, I can't wait to get it home and really unbox it good. More pictures to follow.

Even though your new headphones haven't arrived yet, you must have something to use until then. Otherwise you might go mad waiting.
