Insane sound and performance for all headphones.

Modular, non-obsolescent design. 100% linear power supply. 50% longer warranty. No off-the-shelf amp chips. Meet the all-new Magni Unity, the only affordable, fully discrete headphone amp and preamp on the planet—with an optional internal Schiit Unison USB DAC.

Total Confidence for All Headphones

No matter what headphones you have, you’re set with Magni Unity. It’s dead-silent with the most sensitive IEMs, and has tons of power for power-hungry planars. And don’t worry about your favorite cans—Magni Unity’s overcurrent and DC correction systems help ensure they’re totally safe.

One Box for Your Entire Desktop

With the optional internal Unison USB™ DAC card, Magni Unity is a one-box system for your entire desktop. Plug in via USB-C for ultimate streaming quality, connect the preamp outputs to powered monitors (or a mini speaker amp like Rekkr) and you’re set for both headphone and speaker listening.

New Tech—Proven by Listening

Magni Unity debuts our new super-linear, high-precision current-feedback discrete topology—an exotic, bespoke amplifier stage unlike anything available from the competition. Coupled with the best parts, from a custom, sorted Alps potentiometer to silicon and film capacitors and 0.5% thin-film resistors, Magni Unity delivers better sound, as confirmed by our blind listening panels. 

Include preamp outputs. This means you can connect your Magni to your desktop powered monitors for a complete system—or even connect it to a speaker power amp and 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 either headphones or speakers.

Designed and Built in Texas By “designed and built in Texas” this is what we mean: the vast majority of the total production cost of Magni—chassis, boards, transformers, assembly, etc—goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. In the case of the Magni family, the chassis are made in California, the PCBs are made in Nevada, and it all comes together at our Corpus Christi, TX facility.

3-Year Warranty covered by a 3-year parts and labour UK warranty.

SPECS THAT MATTER

Power: Plenty for all headphones except a handful of the hardest-to-drive ones (we’re talking HE6, Tungsten, stuff like that)

Noise: Inaudible on all headphones and IEMs

Distortion: Unmeasurable at normal listening levels; 1000x lower than the typical headphones you're using 

Heat: Amp gets slightly warm without DAC card, moderately warm with DAC card; this is fine, we have made much hotter-running stuff that lasts farrrrrr past the warranty

Size: Extremely desk-friendly
