-This and all Schiit products are what your looking and "listening" for to have a intense Schiit audio feeling. This review is for all the folks looking for the perfect design and build with cost/durability/audiophile performance/warranty which all can be yours from having a quality Schiit product leading to the very best Schiit ever experienced.-Let me save you all sometime; eventhough my audiophile experience is "i" knows what i like and i like this Schiit amp/pre amp as well as all the superior Schiit products. Yep want one of each=right? Schiit being great Schiit and me being greatly anal it seemed were a great pair from the start. i do not have to know the cool audiophile lingo because the anal me researched for hours/days/weeks for the best audiophile products from the best audiophile experts, articles, reiews, real user posts and web indvidual user sites that spanned over years of detailed info and Schiit always remained at the top of every experts and everyones "great" list. so as the saying goes "Try it you will like it!" I tried and i liked=the best Schiit ever!-Schiit sound quality is amperage with audiophile grade sound. We audiophiles crave clean, detailed, and dynamic audio that makes you feel like you're in the room with the band. If an amp doesn't have enough amperage to handle your headphone speakers (especially those power-hungry ones), you might get distortion, clipping, or that flat, lifeless sound. But with Schiit solid amperage, you get better control, deeper bass, and that crisp clarity that keeps you coming back for more Schiit. *Very proud to have a Schiiter in the middle of my living room for daily hours of enjoyment.-Schiit howdy shout out to the caring and prompt great Schiit Team customer care whom help me with guidence and Schiit product support. Its nice to know that someone gives a personal Schiit about the customer.-Disclaimer-i also give a Schiit thus this review is only to help a fellow audiophile have a great Schiit experience as i and many others have thus appologize for any percieved offense that may have been interpreted the wrong way. Enjoy.

Well, i know i won't save the world with this review, but here it comes. This Schiiit Midgaurd produces a really nice analog sound with an incredibly large soundstage, reminiscent of old time high end audio. The soundstage comes very close to my Ifi headphone amp with the 3d exite switch ( parametric eq) on. It's a warm sounding amp with great resolution and at this price a truly outstanding bargain. This sounds better than a whole lot of amps that i have owned. Highly recommended. And i would add a special thanks to the late greats Gordon Holt and Art Dudley for the inspiration, Ha Ha Ha.

Well made and sounds great.

Great sounding headphone amp. I remember when a decent sounding headphone amp was only found in the Headphone subculture, made by hobbyists. They were decent sounding affairs but most used op amps in the signal path and that degraded the sound but made the amp economical. Schiit and ChiFi has changed all that. This a GREAT SOUNDING head amp period. It compares very favorably to a $2K headamp I have and I wish I had heard this before buying that one. Highly recommended and for the price it is a no brainer and you are supporting a US based business.

I love it. XLR for the balanced (well, sort of) win. It’s one hella powerful headphone amp. Sounds great as well. Recommend for your Schiit stack.👍

Love this amp can’t believe how cheap and how good.

Fantastic piece. Extremely versatile and featured for the money.

This is no doubt an end-game amp for most, at an absolutely reasonable price. I would wish for maybe 25% more power because of the amount of processors I experiment with (EasyEffects/JamesDSP on Linux), both has a ridiculous amount of headroom if you aren't running some EQ etc. Build quality is top-knotch, a massive upgrade from my old Magni, to serve Hifiman Arya Organics. 9/10
