## Description

Midgard is simply the best measuring, highest power discrete headphone amp that we’ve ever made. But that’s not all. Midgard’s new Halo topology also offers the potential for higher performance where it matters—at your ears.Introducing Halo: Breakthrough or Illusion?Halo is a mixed-mode feedback topology that incorporates your headphone driver into the feedback loop, offering the potential for better control at driver resonance and improved acoustic results. However, since confirming that would require years of research and still have everyone arguing about it, we decided to do something crazy: introduce this amp at a great price and let you decide.Try For YourselfWant to try Halo? Plug in to the front panel XLR. Compare to the front panel TRS, which doesn’t have Halo, because Halo requires separate ground returns. See what you think.A Great Headphone Amp, PeriodHalo or no, Midgard is completely over the top in terms of value and performance. It delivers nearly 5W into 32 ohms through either the ¼” TRS or 4-pin XLR connectors with near state-of-the-art measurements. It’s quiet enough for super-sensitive headphones. It has smart protection to safeguard your headphones (and itself). And it has a top-of-class Alps RK27 volume pot for smooth control and fantastic tracking. Aaaaand it’s made in Texas.Flexibility for Your Entire DesktopMidgard isn’t just a headphone amp. It also has balanced and single-ended preamp outputs, so you can connect to powered monitors for a complete system. It also has both balanced and single-ended inputs, and two gain levels. And all these connections use best-in-class connectors, together with signal switches, for ultimate integrity and reliability.

Review: Great SS class A headphone amplifier - This is a very good headphone amplifier. As with all things Schiit, the build and component quality are excellent, when combined with quality circuit design, translates to great sound. I may not be keeping this, but that's only because it doesn't have quite enough power for my power hungry Dan Clark Audio E3 planar magnetics. Considering the price, this is an absolutely steal, given it's performance.
Review: Gave me chills - I'm not an audiophile, I want to preface with that. Yes, I've done my research, but I've never been able to tell the difference between all the different headsets others spend so much time on and cannot tell the difference between tuned profiles from notable audiophiles in the community and default profiles That being said, I appreciate quality construction and longevity. I got into more expensive and premium headsets not for sound quality but because of just how many hyperx, asus, and so many other brands of headsets I've broken over the years and frankly I was just absolutely tired of them breaking and buying new ones Got this for gaming because I'd been running my Demevalos' guide modded so that the cable is replaceable (which was the main reason why I've had to replace so many of my other headsets) Beyerdynamic DT 880 600Ω on a Creative Labs Soundblaster x4 which frankly wasn't up to the task of driving them for FPS gaming All I can say is what a difference. I had the game Wardogs open in the lobby with its music playing when I first plugged it in and put on the headset. Instantly had full body chills, not that that game's lobby music is particularly striking, but that was my first experience with this The difference is amazing. I can now easily perceive footsteps and bushes and determine directions where I had issues hearing them before at full volume when at somewhere around 30% I do think that this is purely due to my having purchased a 600Ω headset on sale and it needing far more power to properly run than your normal headset I can't speak for the Halo feature being good or not as I don't have the other cable to compare it to the 3.5mm output, as my 3.5mm jack was replaced due to the right cable failing when I got this Can say that the Soundblaster fits perfectly on the non-vented section of the Midgard and that I'm quite satisfied with this combination so far If at some point I do get the 3.5mm jack I'll update this to reflect what I think of that feature if I can perceive it at all

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing performance at a reasonable price
*by L***W on July 11, 2025*

Purchased the Midgard and Mimir as an upgrade from a magni unity & modi+ stack. I didn't expect the upgrade to be as large as it is. I've never been a big believer in spending more than entry level money on a dac and amp setup, but I now am a believer. Everything sounds larger and more enveloping. There's a greater sense of space between instruments and sounds. I don't want to go on an audiophile jargon tangent, but suffice to say the upgrade is readily apparent. I haven't even approached 12 o'clock on low gain on any of my many headphones. Even 300 ohm Sennheisers like the HD650/6xx are way loud enough at around 10 o'clock on low gain. This thing has all the power you'll ever need. Midgard at $219 ($256 price on Amazon accounts for shipping and Amazon's cut) is just amazing value. If you're looking for your first foray into the separate amp and dac space, I'd highly recommend skipping the magni or something similar (like JDS atom) and jumping right to Midgard. Its all anyone should realistically need.
