Schiit Audio

The Schiit Audio Gungnir 2 DAC expands on Schiit Audio’s multi-bit approach. It uses a new balanced analog stage and four medical/defense-grade DAC8812CRUZ converters with a proprietary time- and frequency-domain-optimized digital filter (based on an Analog Devices DSP). It can be user-switched to operate in a no-oversampling (NOS) mode to bypass the digital filter.

DAC offers Multiform balanced multibit architecture. (four medical or defense grade DAC8812C D/A and time- and frequency-optimized digital filter managed on an Analog Devices DSP; non-oversampling mode also exists), two USB inputs (one high-rate Unison 384), and a completely modular design.

The model uses the Forkbeard platform, a patented multifunctional multi-stack Schiit control system that uses an application for mobile gadgets for full control and visibility of the system's performance.

The Skoll F. phono corrector is a fully balanced, discrete Class A, feedback—free phono corrector that provides an even higher level of amplification than the Stjarna. With low noise levels and up to 70 dB gain, as well as the ability to use balanced inputs, Skol offers the highest value for money.
