NICE. I've been impressed by the various Schiit products I've reviewed (Valhalla, Lyr, and Bifrost). I bought a Bifrost and use it regularly - listening to it now in fact. I thought about buying a Gungir but now I'm kinda glad I didn't as I am more interested in what Shiit would do with a bigger budget, and that looks like what the Yggdrasil is. Cool!!!!

Cmon Rob - there *is* a 'c' in there and I think it's an important 'c' 
(fwiw, I reckon I could do an awful lot of 'Shiit' with a bigger budget !)
(Jason's trademark sense of humor is in evidence - as always - on that PDF. I particularly like the part about each enquiry regarding anything not on the sheet increasing the price by $50 - I wonder how many audio companies would love to have the balls to add something that cheeky to their marketing ? Looking forward to hearing more - high time they released a speaker amp. Total market dominance cant be far off ! )

Speaker amps--and a lot of other surprises--are coming...
Welcome!
Thank you! Yes, I know--it's past time we said, "Hello." Sorry to be scarce, and apologies in advance if the marketing disease kicks in.
(Just kidding, we aren't going to shill anything, but if you have questions, feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to answer.)

Welcome aboard, Jason - I think it's fair to say that you do a sterling job at Head-Fi keeping everyone in the loop. Congratulations on the USB2 and Uber Analog board upgrades for the Bifrost and Gungnir - awesome to see Schiit following through on the promise to provide upgrades for your DACs, and doing it in a fashion that - to my eyes - appears seamless.
I look forward to 6Moons reviews of the Ragnarok and er, that other one ! Looks like Wikippedia has some work to do.

Jason, I love my Gungnir but it's exciting to see the new Schiit, the end game DAC has arrived!

And here I was thinking the magni and modi would be my next schiit... Little did I know.

If past history with each new Schiit release is any guide, they do a better job of keeping on top of 'release day' demand hysteria than many of the one-man-band operations (Headamp ... who the hell waits 6-12 months for a headphone amp ?), but I fully expect that these will sell as fast as Schiit can build them, even at the prices Jason has slapped on the PDF. I call it the 'Head-Fi effect', and it's frightening to behold - I'm happy to allow a month or two for that madness to subside
