OK, so if you are here you probably know what this is, but if not, in a nutshell this is a: 

- Well-regarded, USA-made DAC

- 32-bit Delta-sigma D/A converters with Adapticlock™ clock regeneration (VXCO and VCO reclocking for jitter reduction)

- Fully 24bit 192kHz capable 

- Fully discrete analog output stage, with balanced outputs (hardware balanced), and single-ended output (hardware summing)

- Fully upgradable digital and analog components*

- USB**, SPDIF BNC and RCA coax inputs, and Toslink optical input

- 3-pin XLR balanced outputs, x2 seperate single-ended outputs

 

*: The Gungnir gen1 delta-sigma digital component can be upgraded to Gungnir gen2 delta-sigma (better), or Gungnir multibit (best) at A2A

**: when I auditioned this amplifier prior to purchasing I felt that the USB input sounded inferior to the BNC and optical inputs, so I opted for a USB-free version; the USB module has since been upgraded significantly and can be added on by A2A

 

A little aside about upgrades:

A new (gen2) Gungnir  delta-sigma costs $1649. A new multibit Gungnir costs $2130. You could in theory pay an additional $950 at A2A to have this (or any) Gungnir upgraded to a the primo Gungnir multibit DAC with new warranty - bringing you to a total spend of $1600 for what will essentially be a brand new Schiit Gungnir Multibit DAC (with renewed 2 year warranty) instead of $2130. The multibit Gungnir is a serious piece of kit, and would be end-game equipment for most I would think.

 

This Gungnir DAC is in mint condition. It is fully broken in having had >200 hours playtime, and for an extra $20 I will add:

- 2x 60cm XLR 3-pin balanced output cables from Blue Jeans cable (Belden 1080F balanced audio cables, Neutrik XLR plugs) [USD$60 new]

- 2x 1m RCA LC-1 stereo audio cables from Blue Jeans cable [USD$30 new]

 

You can bundle this with any other item I have for sale for a further $10 off. Please check out my other listings as well - Sennheiser HD-600 headphones, Meier Audio Corda HeadFive headphone amplifier, Bubinga wood headphone stand, and assorted vacuum tubes.
