Looks like the Schiit is going to hit the fan here soon!!!!
I love announcements and I might have to drop the coin on the new DAC.... hee hee.
I have to say I've been very impressed with their products and it looks like this will be some good stuff coming from them in the world of Digital Audio.
Looking forward to the Yggdrasil!!!! Though it's crazy thinking of a 30 lbs DAC!!! 8O
Yggdrasil is the ultimate expression of Schiit’s bitperfect approach, and
the antithesis of noise-shaping DACs and technologies such as DSD. With
proprietary technology from input stage to clock regeneration to digital
filter to D/A conversion and analog output stage, Yggdrasil (the world tree
in Norse legend, and the source of all things) resets the bar for DACs.
Inputs: USB, Toslink, Coax, BNC, AES/EBU
Outputs: balanced XLR and single-ended RCA
Clock Regeneration: proprietary Adapticlock topology with analysis of
quality of incoming datastream, as well as VCO and VCXO reclocking
Phase Inversion: selectable via front panel button
Digital Filter: proprietary Schiit closed-form bitperfect digital filter based
on <REDACTED>
D/A Conversion: proprietary fully differential configuration based
on<REDACTED>
Analog Stage: proprietary Schiit Pivot-Point differential current-feedback
topology, fully discrete, with ultra-low-noise JFET and bipolar devices
Power Supply: 4 choke-input, shunt-regulated supplies feeding 20+
stages of discrete and integrated local regulation
Size & Weight: 16 x 12 x 3.875”, 30 lbs
Estimated Price & Availability: $1700-1900, early 2014
