I used to be a happy elf in Wichita.
My Magni is sitting here with an ugly Gamma 2 in a ghetto-rigged case on top of it... the Modi looks so pretty by comparison... And I have left over money from my turntable fund...
Has anyone got the Modi and the Gamma 2 that would care to make a comparison?
There's a reason you're saying the Gamma 2 is ugly. Did you build it, or did someone else make it look ugly with a ghetto-rig build? Seems a trivial thing upon which to base sound quality.
Let me see ... "I hate the gray color of the Modi. I think it would sound so much better in RED."
Does that make a good comparison?
As I stated a few posts before, I am new to head-fi equipment and to the forum. I just got my first custom IEMs (Westone ES5) and was trying to decide whether to get a DAC/amp to get full benefit of my purchase. The way you talk about your products and your company helped me make up my mind; I ordered the Magni/Modi last night. I work for a software company and take pride in my work even when my management and clients don't. I will take pride in knowing I purchased a quality product from you.
I got my Magni/Modi on Monday. They look great and sound even better. The modi worked immediately with both my Mac and PC. The build quality is great and I get no buzzing with my CIEM.
Thanks for this amazing Schiit!
I will post pictures as soon as am I allowed. I guess I am too new to the forum.
Found that my Little Dot MKIII and my Fiio E17 drive my new HE-400 well enough to pass up on getting the Magni+Modi. Was thinking about just getting the Modi, as my other DACs are a $40 Muse DAC from eBay and the E17 with LO Bypass. Wondering if it's worth it or if there's something else better in the price range. I was looking at the ODAC, but does anyone here know if the 3.5mm to RCA cable is any kind of step down from straight RCA to RCA that I'd get with the Modi?
