PRICE CHECK: To clarify the European price. For the Magni with DAC included? In black? €279. In silver? €289.

Brilliant I bought the phono stage based on your review and that is stunning

What a brilliant review, you cover aspects which most don't and we the shopper benefit greatly from your knowledge and insight, I can't think of another reviewer who does this and in such detail too, it's probably why I like and have so much from Graham Slee, I can't think of anything he/they make which doesn't have an external power supply and you have shown time and again just how good those items are, it also helps keep the cost down too. Always more than just a review :)

The Unison USB card shown in this video is just a USB interface designed for Schiit's Bifrost and Yggdrasil dacs. This card has transformers for full electromagnetic and electrostatic isolation while the cheaper version found in the Modi and Modius do not. The dac card in the Magni Unity contains a simplified Unison interface and the ESS ES9018 dac chip. Not as good as the separate Modi dac but a quick solution for an all-in-one interface.

You should hear the Schitt Vali 3 with a good tube!

Thanks for your review.most interesting. Have you considered comparing low cost Schiit Vs. IFi headphone amp/DAC?

Nice. You also used this as a pre-amp. It's my favor use of this little beast. Topping DX7 Pro with BA V6 Classic opamps > Magni Unity > Muzishare X7. I love this setup. Really clean, distinctive, the bass and midrange remain well exposed and the treble doesn't spike. A very live experience.

I'm afraid I'll burn in hifi-hell... but I really would be interested, to see a comparison of such an entry-level DAC/amp to a decent internal PC-soundcard... E.g. the SoundBlaster AE-7 also uses the ESS 9018 and some usable headphone-amp. I know the usual arguments of the interior of a PC-case being a challenging environment.. but some grounded shielding should keep most frequencies away from critical parts... and the argument of dirty-power - I know CPU and GPU switch power-demands extremely within fractions of ms ... but I also know, what immense effort modern PC-powersupplies and motherboards undertake to solve this (from multiple separated power-rails to layers of isolation and totally oversized power-stages). An external DAC with a simple powersupply and on-desk smartphone nearby probably also has to cope with a not much easier environment. My expectation would be, that there is not much difference until you invest into a DAC/amp one level up in the 400$ range... but that is just a theretical guess - I'm curious to be proven wrong 🤔

Thanks Paul. The Schitt head amp/Topping DAC combo is entering Chord Mojo 2 price territory (with its lower RRP of £395). And it's integrated (obvs). Is this combo a Mojo 2 beater, do you reckon?

@noturnleftunstoned72 2 месяца назад

Is there a big difference between the Vali2++ and the Vali3 tube amps? Is the newer 3 simply more powerful and less noisy? They both have the same tubes to start with. I'm wondering if the 2++ (at $109) will make me happy or to fork up the extra $80+ (CDN money difference plus taxes and import fees) and get the Vali3($149) thank you!

Should i get the schiit magni dac or the ifi zen dac v2 for my dt 900 pro x?

@CharaiABC 2 месяца назад

Is it worrh updating form the magni3+

@FabioKasper 2 месяца назад

Purchased one with the DAC for the office. Really, I don't need anything else. Also, it's a generous 3-year warranty for this little beast. It's Magni 5, damn it. 😅
