I finally took my first real step into hi-fi and bought the Magni Unity (with DAC) for my PC to use as a headphone amp and pre-amp for my old Athena B-1 Speakers and some Monoprice Towers that I've been running off an ebay unpowered pre-amp. (little Bear MC2) I have a Rotel RMB 1048 for juice, and I honestly didn't believe the hype, but there is an instantly audible difference watching shows and listening to even low-quality sources. I am a believer. It was also incredibly easy to install and use. I used your referral link too.

Magni is the entry drug into Schiit equipment.

I have a Magni+ Heretic and it is a beautiful thing. I run my HIFIMAN Sundara (open back) and Focal Elegias with no problem.

Always impressed with Schiit and love that they are in TX. Good American Schiit Hell Yeah!

How can Schiit do all this at these prices ? Just glad they can. Great take Randy.

Thanks for all your insight and enthusiasm sharing...your passion for this hobby gets me excited about new "cheaper" audio stuff...😊

Awesome. I was one of the lucky ones to grab an IEMagni before the stopped production of those.

Glad to see the negative gain feature is back in a Schiit product.

Great overview of the Magni Unity! I think mine is being delivered tomorrow. It will be my second Schiit box. I like the model designations, philosophy, and the story behind the company. I would rather contribute to their success than foreign or mega company that wants mass sales and profit margin.

Pretty sure I will be upgrading all my stereo components to their products as I can manage it.

Doing a purge of gear is fine, but you really should keep the best items at various price points to compare new gear to.

Just hooked up my new Magni with the built-in DAC option. This is my first foray into headphone amps, and also my first DAC upgrade(?) experience. I loved that my MacBook immediately saw the Magni in the sound options. Started off with some Pink Floyd Meddle, Followed by Rush Farwell to Kings, and now I've got some ACDC For Those About to Rock. The only thing that surprised me was the size. I knew it was not big, but was thinking mass market paperback rather than SONY Walkman. Luving it so far, thanks Randy for all the great reviews.

Thanks Cheapaudioman. Picked up the unity with DAC for Christmas. Sounds great with my HD569s. I really like this Amp/DAC especially the price and small formfactor! It's a good upgrade from my Fulla E. I got this so I can up my headphone game later this year. Looking at the Edition XS.

I have the Magni Piety and Modi+ with an old pair of Yamaha orthodynamic headphones. Not feeling any reason to upgrade, but I like how Schiit upgraded the toggles. The old style toggles on the back of my Piety for power and gain do feel a little fragile. These new style with the axis point buried in the chassis looks way more durable. Little thing, but I like how Schiit continues to tweak their industrial design for the better (not to cut cost).

Looking forward to this review since I just ordered mine yesterday.

Great double header. Ordering a Magni now to drive my Drop HD6XX, Thank you my friend.

"$119 magni in 2024 is equivalent to $85 in 2010."
Thank you central banking.

I know it will sound as false comment, but I bought the flexispot 7pro with my hard earned money for the black friday and there is no turning back. Having a standing desk offers so much flexibility if you stay a lot of time at your desk. It is stable but expect to have a bit of movement when fully extended and it's mostly normal, if you shake your desk, it will not probably stay still after all.

Back to the magni unity, sadly in their EU store, the price is heavily impacted and goes up from 119$ to 175€ for the amp only and the combo from 189$ to 279€ wich is hard to swallow. :/

Nice video as always.

I've had the Magni+ for about 2 years for my PC (and have absolutely loved it), and I was thinking of just grabbing the Modi when I could afford it. But I think I'll actually pick up a Unity for my PC and move the Magni+ over to my stereo set-up that I use for my turntable and CD player, since my current speaker amp doesn't have a headphone output.

new Schiit products ! Dont have any yet but its only a matter of time 🙂 Thanks for the video, Randy

I use it only as a pre-amp for the power tube amp. Very detailed sound but still giving a nice smooth treble. Details are not as high as Topping L30 II but you can focus more on the midrange because the treble is not super sharp. It also reminds me more of live and speaker sound. I bet you enjoy this more than many other headphone amps. Also it can handle full volume at high gain without going protection mode like some Topping products.
