Wait!?!?!?! Why didn't you test the Eitr vs the xUSB?
Should also test it against DX7S Coax output.

Should test Eitr vs the other Coax devices lolYou want me to do that or test two other device I have not yet reviewed?
Compared to their respective USB input options, and to Schiit DACs with the USB Gen 2 and 3 boards, the raw character of the DACs doesn’t really change here, but there’s a discernible improvement in resolution/detail, and in the case of Bifrost MB, Gungnir MB and Spring DAC a blacker background. And, in all cases, protracted listening sessions generally left me with a sense that the overall presentation was smoother and easier to lose myself in and any sense of "edginess" to the music was gone.
They have designed their horrible products to scale with price, starting with Modi you have lost quality vs an onboard sound card... but likely your headphones will sound better since you will be using a real amp and things will be louder.Compared to their respective USB input options, and to Schiit DACs with the USB Gen 2 and 3 boards, the raw character of the DACs doesn’t really change here, but there’s a discernible improvement in resolution/detail, and in the case of Bifrost MB, Gungnir MB and Spring DAC a blacker background.

Thank you for both. Corrected.Excellent review. Just a remark, you linked the iDSD BL to a wrong post.
LOLAre we doing a lot of publicity to Schit products here? Good or bad, it's the most named brand here,
After reading all these reviews I'm really considering one..
That quote was much more convincing before the massively publicized closing of Ringling Brothers & Barnum and Bailey Circus.“Any kind of publicity is good publicity as long as they spell your name right.” P.T. Barnum

Just another indication mergers usually go wrong and kill good companies with good ideas.That quote was much more convincing before the massively publicized closing of Ringling Brothers & Barnum and Bailey Circus.
Just hope they don't come out with a product called the Enema.Remember, as you get rid of it, the past participle of Schiit is Schaat.
When discussing Schiit Audio products, much more appropriate P.T. Barnum quotes would be:Just another indication mergers usually go wrong and kill good companies with good ideas.
