Like the concise review. Also, neat to know I'm not the only one who uses Hans Zimmer's Mombasa to test headphones.
Something about the stack and aesthetics that makes it more worthwhile to me. The ODAC is so discreet, and the O2 has a mess of cables in the front. I'd rather hide those away, while the Schiit stack is something I'm proud to have displayed.
Raven, btw, the Magni's volume knob is definitely off center. Let me guess... more towards the bottom right? I'm gonna guess they are all like that. The only fix I see is Schiit placing the hole in the steel more to the lower right in their future Magnis. Doesn't bother me though, as it's only really noticeable if you view it at eye level. Who does that? Unless the Magni sits high on a desk.
Can you take some up close pics of it? If you don't mind. Mine looks fine, aside from it sitting on that bottom right corner.
Sure thing. Although I'm away from my camera, so I had to take a pic with my lowly 1mp iPod.

How would the Magni/Modi combo compare to something like the Audinst HUD MX1. I conviced a friend of mine to get a DAC/Amp after he tried mine out and he can't decide between those two options.
He's buying a Beyerdynamic DT880 to go along with them and he already has the HD595 and the ATH M50.
