I did not personally. I would have to ask Jason about that one.@T.M.Noble Did you guys do any testing with IEM's on it?
Rather than trying to talk you out of calling my company dishonest and unscrupulous directly I will make you an offer: order one of these new products under pseudonym and send it to Amir for testing. Once you have done this give me all your info and I will fully reimburse you if you do not want to keep the unit. No shipping fee restocking, any of that. All you need to is put up the initial purchase.
Or if that isn't what you want I'll zoom call you. I will virtually take you in our warehouse grab a random unit of your choice off the shelf and test it in front of you live.
Your call. Let's put this to bed.
Sorry if i missed this but @amirm did you do any linearity tests of the pot at different settings? The Alps pot looks great but I’m always wary of using a multi-gang pot for balanced signals. Even with relatively good imbalance tolerances, the loss of CMRR etc. particularly at lower settings where we may do a lot of our listening seems like a possible issue?
fair offer, I'll consider getting Modius since it is more interesting to me.Rather than trying to talk you out of calling my company dishonest and unscrupulous directly I will make you an offer: order one of these new products under pseudonym and send it to Amir for testing.

Will a really power hungry headphone sound different on my Heresy if it's volume matched to the Magnius?
Assuming its not some really exotic beast that would push the Hersey to clipping, no.
And, in fact, the Heresy should sound notionally "cleaner" if run single ended into any normal headphones within its considerable power range than the Magnius 6.35mm output. Audible ? depends if you have golden ears, very good headphones and fancy the prospect of going deaf to find out.
Just let me know. Feel free to message me.fair offer, I'll consider getting Modius since it is more interesting to me.
My guess is that you went for 'irony' there but that might very well be 100% true. That's what the extra H2 usually does, it adds some 'character'.Ah, so the single ended output had "warmth and character" and the balanced output is "sterile and lifeless?"
It's a by product of the topology, not an intentional design choice.My guess is that you went for 'irony' there but that might very well be 100% true. That's what the extra H2 usually does, it adds some 'character'.
Generally, this seems to be an excellent amp for a very good price, I don't really understand all the complaints.
a by product of the budget I guess. And it could sound anywhere between H2-character, eww and not audible. A single 1kHz test is not enough to say much about the sound.It's a by product of the topology, not an intentional design choice.
The hifiman he6 is often trotted out as the killer but this was when many amps couldnt muster 1w. I honestly don't know what would need the full power this can provide.What headphones would really push the power envelope in the Magnius to its limits then? I have no idea what could suck that much power...
