Haha, I love it. Wow, it was the A1, that was what the seller told me, and it was listed in the manual too when I got the unit, wow so the multibit takes over pretty much everything, R2R on a chip so interesting I love this stuff.- kohokz

Was the VCXO part of the old boards only? or part of the main circuit board? if so my gumbi was bought second from a user that had since 2016, it was the DS version. I sent mine a month ago, been using it for about a month, love the multibit sound compared to the DS, and I thought the DS sounded...- kohokz

I ordered the Holo Audio Red DDC/Streamer, so just gotta wait a month before I get the unit, Ive read the Unison USB doesn't play well with DDC's? Is the BNC connection good? what do you all think? Ive never used the Gumbi with a DDC so its all new to me.- kohokz

yes it sounds really good, just when I thought I was done lol, if one comes up on eBay I might have to grab it. I do like the Denafrips sound, but su1 would probably be my choice.- kohokz

Have any of you all tried using a DDC with the Gungnir? Curios if it makes any improvements or its a waste of time? Thank you. I am so sorry, a DDC is a digital to digital converter, its to help with clocking, for example denafrips makes a DDC called Iris, or a Singxer SU-6.- kohokz

Im the type I paid for it so im going to use it, and so far its the best input its really clean and clear and full. SPDIF sounded a tiny bit veiled, these margins are very tiny the whole unit sounds good with anything ive inputted, but hdmi>>node x>>usb out to usb unison has had the best sound...- kohokz

I see what you mean, honestly I would personally feel its excessive for me to have more than one of anything and including space restraints. To...- kohokz

Yea that's how I feel with the Gumbi, i'm almost kinda sad that the journey is over lol. But it really does sound so good that its at a level were I feel I really don't need any more stereo upgrades and now I can focus on finding good musical content.- kohokz

I got the unit back last Friday, it sounded ok initially, it really took like 3 days of being on to open up, last night was a true wow moment. The depth opened up, the layering the bass was super tight, textured, the sound was cavernous just huge. I could hear/see the shape of the sounds in...- kohokz
