New release: Schiit Modi Multibit DAC for $249 + S&H

Schiit Audio has released a brand new DAC, shaking things up in their Modi line-up with the new Modi Multibit going for $249 plus mandatory shipping. The shipping estimate is currently 2-4 business days from ordering. You can find it on the Modi 2 page, it’s one of the options, see screeshot below:

This is of interest if you are interested in multi-bit DACs, but it’s also of interest if you are not: it may put some price pressure on the used prices of the Modi 2 and Uber.

Details and explanation how this fits in their multibit line-up at their News page.

PS: an easy mnemonic to tell the Modi and Magni apart. The DAC has a D in its name, Modi, while the AMP has an A in its name, Magni.

PS2: yes, I am aware that DAC is an acronym while AMP is short for amplifier, but it creates a disturbance in the uppercase universe when I type DAC and Amp 😉
