DESCRIPTION

Experience the power, performance, low noise and versatility that brings out the best in any headphone with the Schiit Magni 3+/ Magni Heresy. From sensitive IEMs to power-hungry headphones, these Schiit amps can handle them all. With 2400mW into 32Ω, switchable gain & an exceptionally low noise floor, you get a high-performance amp.

Schiit gives you a choice between a very powerful amp and an extremely powerful amp. The Magni 3+ is an affordable mini speaker amp with a Vbe multiplier and driver stage. It’s the ultimate all-discrete current-feedback headphone amp. The Magni Heresy is an all-op-amp based headphone amp. It includes a multiple paralleled output stage with feedforward that offers some really awesome measurements.

Both amps have been designed and built in the United States. The Magni 3+ features the traditional silver and grey chassis while the Magni Heresy sports a fancy black and red chassis. They include preamp outputs, letting you connect to desktop powered monitors as well as speaker power amps. Thanks to built-in instant shut-down and time-delayed start-up, say goodbye to glitches or pops.

FAQs

: Because some people really like our historic approach to Magni, and some people want even better measurements. So we decided to give you both: a Magni 3+ that is the ultimate expression of our discrete, current-feedback topology (basically a small speaker amp) and a Magni Heresy that is 100% integrated—all op-amps, all the time..
: Because you like silver and gray, which is the finish of Magni 3+, or black and red, which are Magni Heresy’s colors.
: I think we covered this in the product description, but here goes again, with more detail
● Magni 3+: choose this one if you want an all-discrete headphone amp. Discrete means its made up of lots of individual transistors (well, actually a lot of paired matched transistors now). It’s essentially a mini speaker amp. In fact, the topology is exactly that of a 2-stage speaker amp now, since we added a driver stage and Vbe multiplier for biasing. The driver reduces distortion and the Vbe multiplier means the bias is more stable. It’s a super-advanced amp, and we’re very proud of it.
● Magni Heresy: choose this one if you want a 100% op-amp-based headphone amp that delivers spectacular measurements. Thank the high-quality op-amps used: OPA1662 for gain, OPA1688 for output—eight (8) OPA1688 stages per channel, for low output impedance and very high current capability. With these advanced parts (the OPA1688 even uses feedforward in its topology), we’re getting 6-8dB lower THD+N than Magni 3+, which is already 10-15dB lower THD+N than Magni 3.
: Ah hell no, we aren’t falling for that. You tell us.
: We think both amps sound very, very good, or else we wouldn’t offer both of them. We developed the Magni Heresy largely to see what could be accomplished with a simple topology and modern op-amps, but we’re very pleased with the way it came out. At the same time, we think Magni 3+ provides compelling reasons that you shouldn’t choose everything simply based on numbers. But seriously, you tell us.
: When we started developing an all-op-amp Magni, it was 100% counter to everything we’ve done. We’ve always done fully discrete designs, when we weren’t so cost-constrained that they weren’t practical. Going op-amp was far, far easier, and more typical in today’s world, but it was, well, almost anathema. So to us, an op-amp Magni was heresy. But we’re happy with the way it turned out!
: That’s a great question, isn’t it? Why would we bother with a much more complex, harder to produce product that takes a lot more engineering time and skill (the Magni 3+)? Well, we believe that the numbers don’t tell the entire story. We believe that Magni 3+ has a place. But when it comes down to it, it’s your call.
: Why is it a 6S or 8 but not 9 or 10S but 11? Nah, sorry, just teasing you, Apple fans. There’s a method to our madness. For us, a product gets a “+” when it has the same functionality, but has been changed significantly internally. Like Freya+ and Saga+. A product gets a number bump if the functionality changes.
: Both of them will run IEMs with zero audible noise, though Magni Heresy is slightly quieter on the analyzer.
: Both of them have tons of power—specifically 2.4W RMS per channel at less than 1% THD, though both typically perform comfortably above that.
: Simple: we keep tweaking for higher efficiency. Last time it was a topology change. This time it’s a driver stage and optimized emitter resistance. It is about the maximum of what we can do now, though, without giant changes.
: Either Magni has no capacitors in the signal path at all—that’s what we mean by DC coupling. This eliminates any sonic effect a capacitor in the signal path might have on your system.
: No. Both Magnis have relay mute for delayed startup and fast shut-down. You can leave your headphones plugged in all the time. It also automatically disconnects the preamp outputs when you plug headphones in. Amazing things, switches.
: Seriously, you really don’t need to. But, you know, different people like different things, and they may want to try out tube amps, or balanced amps, or Class A/Continuity™ amps, or you might have Raal/Requisite headphones, and then you actually need a different amp, the Jotunheim R, the only direct drive ribbon headphone amp.
: We did. They’re just in a different chassis and costs another $99-249. They’re called “Modi 3” or “Modi Multibit.”
: Unless you know what you’re doing, we don’t recommend that. Magni uses an AC wall wart. Most are DC. DC won’t work with either Magni. Plus, seriously? This is a $99 amp. You want to use some $599 power supply with it? Nah.
: In Norse mythology, Magni was one of Thor’s sons.
