No matter what we put through it, the sound signature never changed.
Schiit stack vs fulla 2 full#
We suppose we shouldn’t be surprised about this – the company has a track record of delivering great sound even in their entry-level models – but it was still unbelievable just how good the amp sounded.Īlthough it doesn’t include a separate digital-to-analogue converter, like the Fulla 2 ( full review here), it costs the same as that model, and delivers sound that feels like it could easily cost a few hundred dollars more. Never did we feel like the ample shortchanging us, or presenting music in anything but the best possible light. There was a definite weight to the audio quality, in the sense that everything we listen to felt like it had some genuine power driving it. We’ll admit: we completely fell in love with the sound of the Magni 3. For now, we'll stick to calling it the Magni 3 - rest assured that if you buy a Magni from Schiit's site, you're getting the version we're talking about here.) That's annoying for those of us who have published reviews, but whatevs. Schiit decided to 'reboot' its Magni line after this review was written, like the Tomb Raider and God of War games on Playstation. This does not mean we've got the name wrong. You'll notice that if you click on the link above to visit Schiit's site, it simply refers to the amp as the Magni, not the Magni 3. The Schiit Magni 3 does away with all that, offering all the features of the Uber in an attractively-priced package ($119) that remains one of the best-designed amps we’ve ever come across. The Magni 2 was a standard amplifier, while the Magni 2 Uber had improved construction, slightly different circuitry, and RCA outputs as well as inputs. While they all took a roughly similar form – a diminutive silver box – they all had slightly different features. Schiit’s Magni line, up until recently, was quite complicated, with multiple models. To see how it stacks up, check out our list of the best headphone amps.Ī brief bit of history. In this review, we break down the Magni 3’s sound, design, packaging and accessories, specs and more.
Now, Schiit have released the third version of the Magni, which we recently spent a month with. Their Magni amp/ Modi DAC combo has long been a fan favourite, selling by the truckload and getting new listeners addicted to audio gear. For many, the first stop in upgrading their headphones sound is a little outfit out of Valencia, California: Schiit Audio, pronounced exactly like you think it is. It’s almost a right of passage for anybody looking to get into the world of audio.
