Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
I'm glad that it's not just me :) But they aren't both gen 5. Mimby is gen 2, Bimby is gen 5.- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
I see no reason to argue with the person who either didn't read or don't understand the specification. Quoted from http://www.schiit.com/products/wyrd If, as you stated, you are here for a long time, you may've heard that clock signal is a part of data that is being sent to DAC. That should...- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
Ok, I think I wouldn't bother such an experienced man (and other educated people) with such a nonsense. Especially if he wasn't sitting in that room and listening. It's non-constructive talk. I'll just stick with my opinion. And I just suggest people to try by themselves and not listen to some...- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
It wasn't placebo. 3 people heard it, 1 of them even didn't know what I was doing. Second was highly sceptical. They were asked prior to me talking about observations. Next please. We surely can switch to another thread if you want.- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
Well, back on topic. Modi MB is great DAC and I like it very much after listening to it on several systems. But USB is the weak link of the DAC. You have to consider that making a purchase. As I'm still waiting for 502DAC that I want to use as a streamer with RPI (through coax). So I will share...- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
I agree with your way of thinking. And I guess each one of us should find his/her balance and keep diminishing returns at minimum. Analog cables do matter. I have 3 of them for hd6xx, 2 of which diy (nothing fancy, from pro audio supplies). And I clearly prefer one over others. But I could...- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
Modi 4490 and Multibit both have usb2 version. They don't have enough space for USB 5 implementation. By the way almost all professional cables such as Mogami or Gotham, etc (I mean pro, not audiophile/fool) use oxygen free copper. It's just the widely used technology that became marketing...- ofilippov

Then why people (that seem to be serious engineers) are inventing different kind of USB inplementations even within one company?)- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
Correction. We were talking about cables AND interfaces. I don't want to mess with anyone here. I will be happy to learn if someone could educate me. Honorable members of different forums with expensive equipment and tons of experience have different opinions. However, at the moment, I compiled...- ofilippov

No, not the whole thread. People discuss the difference they hear on the several pages I read. I'll take my time to read more- ofilippov

Don't wanna make you sad but when I followed the link you provided, the first topic on the list was "Why do USB cables make such a difference?" :astonished:- ofilippov

Schiit Modi Multibit vs Bifrost Multibit
Maybe you're right. But for starters: 1. Check if there is any kind of error-correction in for USB Audio 2.0 spec 2. Check how the USB signal looks like (see oscilloscope pics on the web at least). Try to search different pictures for different interconnects. 3. Find out what voltage tolerances...- ofilippov
