    Well extended and incisive treble, bass solidity and speed, stage spaciousness and layering, in-focus background sound, dynamics, a lot of resolution, and most of all; clarity.

    Really?? Should have said, both are being fed from Eitr. When I switch, I'm really not noticing anything instantly. Perhaps because I'm using SE outs into Saga? Need to do some critical listening in the next few days.

    I’m using the Eitr too. I went from Modi Multibit -> Gungnir Multibit. The Modi Multibit is great but the differences were increasingly apparent the better the headphone I used. My main hp has been the Utopia since before the Gungnir Multibit. What’s your chain?

    Caveat: My Mj2 and Fulla 2 weren’t ideal for comparison.

    I'm on speakers, which maybe is why I'm missing some of the nuances upon initial listening. Chain is: SOTM SMS-200 Ultra > Eitr > Modi Multibit/Gungnir Multibit > Saga > Vidar > Dynaudio Special 40

    Also went from Modi Multibit to Gungnir Multibit, and @BenjaminBore's first reply sums it up for me. All those aspects became even more pronounced after upgrading everything downstream. But I definitely respected the Modi Multibit's value even more after the upgrade.

    Once you spend your life savings on power cables then you'll notice a difference. <3

    @zonto yes I can see why that would be...because my wife would leave me and I'd be all alone with nothing but my system to keep me company!

    I think the latest Modi Multibit went through some running changes. Will do a teardown and measurements.

    I had wondered this. My Gungnir Multibit is about 2+ years old, maybe older (purchased used). My Modi Multibit is 2-3 months old I believe (according to the guy I bought it from).

    Yup. Latest Modi Multibit sounds betterer. Same kind of sound, but better. Need to confirm.

    Dang, i didn't bother opening up the Modi MB in the cheap DAC package because I already had a Modi MB. But now I think I should have tried it out.

    I think you have the old Modi MB. Might need you to open it and take photos.

    I already sent the package off but I don't mind taking pics of mine. In fact I might have already taken pics

    Also went Modi Multibit -> Gungnir Multibit; the difference was immediately apparent. Modi bought new at end of Feb, wonder if its one of the new ones. :O
