DESCRIPTION
NOT JUST ANY BEGINNER'S AMP
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.

CHOOSE BETWEEN TWO POWERFUL VARIANTS
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.




DESIGNED & BUILT IN THE USA
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
Wait a sec, there are two Magnis now? Why U make me choose?!?
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---ll op-amps, all the time..
Why would I choose one over the other?
Because you like silver and gray, which is the finish of Magni 3+, or black and red, which are Magni Heresy's colors.
Which one sounds better?
Ah hell no, we aren't falling for that. You tell us.
At least give us a hint!
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.
Why the name 'Heresy?'
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!
If Heresy is so good, why'd you bother with Magni 3+?
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.
So which one is quiet enough for IEMs?
Both of them will run IEMs with zero audible noise, though Magni Heresy is slightly quieter on the analyzer.
How do you keep getting more and more power out of Magni with every iteration?
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.
These sound so great! Why would I buy any of your other amps?
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.
I want a combined DAC/amp! Why didn't you put a DAC in here?
We did. They're just in a different chassis and costs another $99-249. They're called 'Modi 3' or 'Modi Multibit.'
Hey, so does that mean I can plug in some uber-special, gold-plated, cryo-treated, 85-lb 2000VA wall wart and have even better performance?
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.
What the hell is a Magni?
In Norse mythology, Magni was one of Thor's sons.
