Difference between Magni 3 and 3+

[Cantaloupeman]

So I just found a schiit magni 3 on closeout for 60$. The new magni 3+ is 40$ more. Is there a big difference between the two? Are the power output stats the same? Thanks.

Magni 3 and 3+ are similar but the 3+ measures and sounds a bit better IIRC. The Magni Heresey is all op-amps, the 3 and 3+ are discrete

The magni 3+ is a slightly warmer doing much cleaner sounding amp it's newer and is competitive at it's asking price. The 3 while it was the old $100 King was easily dethroned a couple of years ago. It's not an amp I recommend anybody really get but $60 isn't a bad price for them if that's all you have. I'm just the type that would just spend extra on the newer schiit heresy

The 3+ sounds less compressed by what I read. Haven't heard any of Schiit's lowest end gear though.
