About this product

Magni Heresy raises the bar even higher for affordable headphone amps, with the highest output power in its price class and the cleanest measured performance of any Magni. Not Just a "Starter Amp" Magni Heresy has the power, performance, low noise, and versatility to meet all your headphone's needs. You're set from IEMs to hard-to-drive planar designs. With a full 2400mW into 32 ohms, Magni Heresy has tremendous power reserves. Combined with low distortion, an exceptionally low noise floor, and switchable gain, it performs beyond its price. Even Higher Performance Magni 3 Heresy has even higher measured performance from integrated (op amp) designs. It has insanely great measurements from an all-op-amp based headphone amp that uses super high quality parts, including a multiple paralleled output stage with feedforward. Versatility Comes Standard Connect Mangni 3 Heresy to your desktop powered monitors, or to a speaker power amp to use it as a preamp. With its built-in time-delayed start-up and instant shut-down, there'll be no glitches or pops through headphones or speakers. 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, so 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! Designed and Built in California The majority of the total production cost of Magni 3 Heresy--chassis, boards, assembly, etc.--goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. 2-Year Warranty Magni 3 Heresy is covered by a limited warranty that covers parts and labor for 2 years.
