Скачать или смотреть Schiit Balanced Lokius / Magnius / Modius Setup with Planar Magnetic Headphones

I wanted a setup using the balanced Schiit componets for the DAC, equalizer, and amplifier, so I went with the Lokius, Magnius, and Modius components. Here's a rundown of everything you'll need:

Balanced DAC – choose the black finish:

Balanced equalizer – choose the black finish with the 115VAC for USA:

Balanced headphone amplifier – choose the 115VAC for USA (note: only comes in the black finish - that's why you don't want any components with the silver finish):

Balanced cables:
PYST (Snake Oil) XLR 10" Pair: https://www.schiit.com/products/pyst-cables -- Need two pairs of these!

USB-A to USB-C cable:
I had one laying around the house, but something like this I suppose. Get the length you need:

To connect the headphones to the Magnius:
These will take 2-3 weeks to arrive, so plan accordingly:

Note: if you get the A/C adaptors mixed up, the ADU150150 goes with the Magnius (15V), and the ADU160100 goes with the Lokius (16V). I created labels for these so that I don’t have to dig around in the future if they get mixed up again.
