Asgard 3 and Bifrost 2 is my choice. Won’t get the DAC until next week, but I’m likely going to have confirmation bias since it’ll be my first high end DAC. Right now I’m using the optionally built in Modi Multibit. ---

It was either the Asgard 3 or THX 789 when I was looking for an amp, went with the 789 in the end. I still want to see how the Asgard 3 is because it’s supposed to have a warm signature for a SS.
