Schiit Modius 2021 - Silver

Modius? Yes, as in “Modius Maximus,” a bigger, balanced-output Modi with super-high performance—and even better versatility. Connect to any computer or streamer—or tablet, TV, CD player, or many other sources—and Modius delivers exceptional sound.High Performance DAC and USBModius E features Schiit’s exclusive Unison USB™ interface, which provides plug-and-play compatibility with virtually any modern device. Combined with the ESS ES9028 D/A converter and dedicated balanced and single-ended output stages with DC-coupled output, Modius provides exceptional performance for a very low price.Class-Leading VersatilityPlug Modius E into virtually any computer or streamer with the included USB A-C cable and you’re ready to go. Or, choose optical, coaxial, or AES digital sources and use the included wall power supply. Or, if you want to connect your phone or tablet—something that needs very low power draw—again, use the included wall power supply to eliminate dreaded “draws too much power” errors. That’s right—Modius accepts pretty much any input you can throw at it!Modius E has exactly the same footprint as our popular mid-sized amp series. If you’re looking for more connectivity than the internal cards provide, Modius is a perfect pair. Don’t have one of our amps? No worries, Modius works great with virtually anything!Designed and Built in TexasBy “designed and built in Texas” this is what we mean: the vast majority of the total production cost of Modius E—chassis, boards, transformers, assembly, etc—goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. Our chassis are actually made in California (though the metal comes from Texas). Our PCBs are done in Nevada, Utah, or California. Yes, the wall-warts are from Taiwan, but there’s some give and take at this price point.SE or Balanced Outputs:Frequency Response: 20Hz-20KHz, +/-0.02dBTHD+N: 0.0003%, with or without external powerIMD: 0.0004%, CCIR, with or without external powerS/N: > 118dB, referenced to full output, with or without external powerCrosstalk: -125dB, 20-20kHzMaximum Output: 4.0V RMS balanced, 2.0V RMS single-endedInputs: USB, Toslink SPDIF, Coaxial SPDIF, AESSample Rates and Bit Depths: 16/44.1 to 24/192USB Input Receiver: Schiit Unison USB™D/A Conversion IC: ESS ES9028Analog Stage: Based on LME49724 for balanced output, OPA1656 for SE output, both independent, with precision thin-film resistors and film capacitors, DC coupledOutput: XLR balanced and RCA single-endedOutput Impedance: 75 ohmsPower Supply: USB powered with +/-5V switching rail generator; auxiliary USB power input for 0mA USB power draw devices (like phones and tablets)Size: 9 x 6 x 1.5”Weight: 2 lbItem is in excellent condition with original packaging and paperwork.Also includes Apple Lightning to USB 3 camera adapter.
