Schiit Magni 3

The latest iteration of Schiit's entry level desktop amplifier now comes with the pre-output that previously reserved for the $150 Uber version. While output power has increased compared to the previous generation, so has the standard gain of the amp. Low gain is now 2 (6db), high gain 7 (17db), selectable via rear switch.

Users who are looking to drive a wider variety of very sensitive and harder to drive headphones and (C)IEMs should opt for the FiiO K5 + FiiO E17K or one of their DAPs.

When should you get this?

You want to buy your first and last headphone amplifier. Your ultra sensitive (C)IEMs you have their own amplifier.

Note:

What is gain? And why does Schiit hate unity gain?
