Which flavor did you order?
Did not know that , interesting.
I went with the LIM. Bear in mind that I've never heard any Yggy, let alone all three current flavors. My synthesis of impressions is that MIL appeals to a minority of people, so I eliminated that one first. There seem to be more people who know the OG who had good reactions to the LIM than who have preferred the OG, including at the Schiitr Shoot Out. That's so far, with not a huge number of LIMs out in the field due (presumably) to supply chain issues. But have to make a choice somehow, and from my p-o-v, the weight of the evidence favored the LIM.
Excellent choice.
glad it is coming sooner than later for you. I got the OG it is plugged in for maybe three days now. Have not hooked it up to anything yet. From what I read it takes a few weeks before it settles in so I am not going to listen to it till I feel it has enough time stabilizing. But after reading some of the reviews I am thinking maybe I should have chosen the LIM per the consensus . Oh well .
Hey you might even enjoy the OG more than we enjoy our LIM. I wanted to get the OG for the longest time and even had one in my cart before it went on back order. One of the biggest reasoning for choosing the LIM was its low price. After after reading reviews, i chose the LIM because of its sound signature. If you can find a warm sounding amp to go with a bright sounding OG, I dont see why you wont have a good time listening. Please let us know of your experience with the OG
Going to be awhile I just got the unit three days ago and the yaggys take awhile to settle in.
They all do, as shown on the Schiit site.
”Bright sounding OG”????? Compensating for frequency response aberrations might occasionally be necessary for some sub $200 dacs, but in my experience not for excellent $2k+ ones (Yggy, Holo, Denafrips, Chord, etc.).
After 100h or so, OG Y changes are very small, not sure if it's the DAC or the listener after that point. Like you, I have OG Y and Morpheus. It's definitely an interesting contrast, although I'll hold off on commenting to avoid biasing your impressions
Maybe having both is a good thing. What flavor do you want today? Nice option to have.After 100h or so, OG Y changes are very small, not sure if it's the DAC or the listener after that point. Like you, I have OG Y and Morpheus. It's definitely an interesting contrast, although I'll hold off on commenting to avoid biasing your impressions
Yes. OG Y more incisive, forward for energetic music with percussion, electric instruments, reeds; Morpheus more romantic, especially with strings or piano. I tend to use Y with a tube amp, Morpheus with a solid-state one.
Have the rogue rh-5 hybrid and the burson ha-160 class A solid state headphone amps. I do like the bursons class A amp a lot. Frankly I was surprised at how well it signatures with the Morpheus. I had not expected it to sound more appealing than the more expensive Rogue but it just does. I attribute it to the class A operation of the Burson. The Rogue is class AB operation. Have to see when the OG has enough warm up time on it. IT is I think 5 days since I plugged it in. I still think it need more from what I have read. I am really enjoying the Morpheus now that is sufficiently warmed up. It is I think 13 days since I plugged it in.
