What's in the box!

Santa came in August because I was such A good boy. Can’t wait to open it!

Edit #1: after pulling half a tree out of the bigger box I found these three inside.

Edit #2: Magnus packaging. Unit feels solid and looks great in black.

Edit 3: the second box was the Jotunheim.

Edit 4: the last box was the Bifrost.

the Magnius really has an interesting formfactor, for a desktop placed amp.

@MartinTransporter working on it. Had to squeeze in the opening of the magnius in between meetings. Will break the suspense as soon as I have time to open the boxes :wink:

Just got this in for review today from iFi looking forward to giving it a listen and compare it to several other amps! This amp has been on my short list of amps I have wanted to hear for a long time!

Also @ValentineLuke Rupert Neve Designs!

Here is a closeup of the stack! Stevie Nicks sounding so good with my 6XX and the iFi Tube Flavor, also added a little lift in the bass with the XBASS.

Nice stack!! Nice how the symmetry of the units worked out.

This is just coming from my use of the IFI micro black label but I would be curious to know if you pick up any low level “greyness” that seeps into the background when you use the XBASS. Could be I have a unit that is a bit off (its the only “flaw” I have noted on it audio wise given its price point) or my hearing is super humanly tuned to such things!

Keep up the reviews!

Definitely a legend. I’m told Alex Rosson used an RNHP when he was developing the Rad-0. Pretty cool stuff.
