Watching the Yggdrasil being assembled I can't help but marvel at the modular design concept of the different sections of the DAC, both digital and analog. This affords owners an easy way to upgrade should Mike or Jason develop improvements. Those with Gen 3 USB inputs can easily install the Gen 5 USB input using the build video as a guide. It is unique that the only internal cable is the ribbon cable from the main board to the front panel board. All other circuit paths are achieved via pins and sockets. This not only makes for efficient, foolproof, and quick assembly, it also provides ultimate simplicity for upgrades.
