Ha ha! I would love to, but don't have an Yggy to review. I've heard that Gumby is not quite as resolving, but more musical and sweeter in character overall than Yggy, so I'm staying put. The first time I heard Gumby with a Schiit Mjolnir headphone amp at the CA Audio Show in July, I was surprised at how musical and sweet-sounding it was. This is what convinced me to go for the Multibit upgrade.

Also, I've heard that Jason Stoddard of Schiit also prefers Gumby to Yggy because of its melodic sweetness, and uses one for his own system.
