Go for an easy EMI scheme which allows you to pay for your orders over a convenient period. A minimum purchase value of Rs. 500 is required to avail the EMI facility and the facility can be availed for tenures of 3, 6, 9 or 12 months.

This payment method is currently only available for customers using credit cards issued by Kotak, Axis, ICICI, IndusInd, HDFC, HSBC, SBI, AMEX, RBL & STANC Banks.

After checking out, Select the "Credit Card / Debit Card / Net Banking / EMI" option, which will then direct you to the PayU Payment gateway. Select your card and check the installment value and the overall interest charged on the transaction.

The Long Story
Gungnir's Excellent Performance

With the Gungnir, you get a truly hardware-balanced DAC with two AKM AK4399 32-bit D/A converters, followed by a fully discrete, JFET-input stage for current gain and filtering. The result is exceptional performance that is probably the best in its price class.

Gungnir Multibit: Taking The Gungnir Beyond

Gungnir Multibit, and you get the same proprietary closed-form DSP-based digital filter as Yggdrasil, along with four precision Analog Devices AD5781BRUZ digital to analog converters for true hardware balancing and 19 effective bits of resolution. The analog section is finished with discrete JFET buffers and summers, the same as Yggdrasil.

Adapticlock™: Unique Clock Analysis and Regeneration

Both versions of Gungnir include Schiit's proprietary Adapticlock system, which provides for both exceptional jitter performance and unchanging, glitch-free connectivity. Adapticlock analyzes the incoming signal quality and automatically routes it to the best clock regeneration system—either VCXO or VCO-based. And, it does all of this without altering the bit depth or sample rate of your original music.

USB Input Standard

With Schiit's acclaimed Gen 2 USB input now standard, the Gungnir can be used with a computer, tablet, and even with some Android & iOS phones.

Made in USA

The vast majority of the total production cost of Gungnir—chassis, boards, assembly, etc—goes to American companies manufacturing in the US. Making Schiit's Gungnir truly 'Made in USA'.

Sublime schiit

It's sublime. Not much else to say!
Is the Gungnir multibit worth the dough? In a word: yes.

Note: it doesn't support support DSD, MQA or any other fancy high res input. Also keep in mind that it needs to run or be on for 'minimum' 24 hours before it sounds right and and about 48 hours to sound it's best. So ideally you would want to keep it on 24/7. (i don't know why this is so but trust me it's true. I read about this online and now i can confirm this from my own experience). If warm up time is an issue then you can consider the Chord Cutest or Hugo2.

My setup: Laptop(usb) / Fiio X7 mk2(coax) --> Gumby --> Jotunheim --> Lcd-x / Beyer T5p mk2
