The Gungnir was most certainly the culprit. Its flaws were also evident through speakers, with the MJ out of the equation. The notion that the Gungnir tames the MJ is counter to what I heard, and this is the first I've read of it.
You have the Mjolnir... which is super aggressive and top tilted. That amp takes a seriously smooth, laid back and dark source. It likely wasn't the Gungnir since it is one of the DACs known to tame the Mjolnir some compared to other sources. Personally found the Mjolnir too aggressive even with the Metrum Octave and LCD-3.
