Description
- High Power and Performance: Midgard is the most powerful and best measuring discrete headphone amp Schiit has made, delivering nearly 5W into 32 ohms with top-notch audio quality.
- Halo™ Topology: Uses a unique feedback system called Halo, which incorporates the headphone driver into the feedback loop for potentially better sound control. You can compare the sound with and without Halo using different headphone jacks on the amp.
- Versatile Connections: Midgard features both balanced and single-ended inputs and outputs, making it easy to connect to powered monitors or other components. It includes both XLR and TRS headphone jacks, plus two gain levels for flexibility.
- Quality Components: Built with high-end parts like an Alps RK27 volume pot and Neutrik connectors for reliable performance and smooth operation.
- Made in the USA: Designed and built in Texas, with most components sourced from US manufacturers, ensuring high quality and support for local production.
- Perfect Pairing: Ideal when paired with Schiit’s Modius DAC for a complete, high-quality desktop audio setup.
