Hoping to sell what I think is a super-high value combo.  I intended it to be a secondary system, but I have gone to the convenience of wireless to fill that need.  Amp is a month old; headphones about six months.  Both look "as new" and function without issue.  Home is smoke and pet free. 

Magni 3 includes original box and paperwork and power supply, as well as a nice dual RCA to 3.5mm cable.  Info from Schiit website below.


Go ahead. Compare the third-generation Magni to anything out there at its price. We think you’ll find there’s really no competition. This is no “starter amp.” Magni has the power, performance, resolution, and versatility to meet all your needs—no matter the headphone.

Ready For Any Headphone
Magni 3 is ready for any headphone, from IEMs to hard-to-drive planar designs. With a full 2000mW into 32 ohms—rated in the most honest way, RMS continuous, both channels driven—Magni has tremendous reserves of power. Combined with low distortion, an exceptionally low noise floor, and switchable gain, Magni is ready for any headphone.
 
Powered Monitors Welcome, Too
Magni 3 includes preamp outputs. This means you can connect it to your desktop powered monitors for a complete system—or even connect it to a speaker power amp and use it as a preamp. With its built-in time-delayed start-up and instant shut-down, there’ll be no glitches or pops through either headphones or speakers, either.
 
Forget $99—Compare at Many Times the Price
Most headphone amps in Magni’s price range use op-amps (integrated chips) for gain and power output. Not Magni. Magni’s gain stage is an-all-new, fully discrete, high-speed, dc-coupled, current-feedback design, completely different than the first and second-generation Magnis. This current-feedback gain stage is typically only found in very exotic designs that sell for more than 10x the Magni’s price.


Headphones include original box, 1/4" adapter, original 6' cable, and a 2m pure silver plated cable with 3.5mm plug.  Info from Massdrop about these phones below.

The HD58X Jubilee uses Sennheiser’s new 150-ohm drivers, which require less amplification than previous driver platforms while retaining the same magnet strength and driver size. This makes the new headphone easier to drive from sources like your mobile phone or digital audio player. The sound is clear, fast, dynamic, and lively: reminiscent in some ways of the HD 600 and in others of the HD 650. It places an emphasis on clean, extended bass, with a solid transient response and a smooth but clear upper midrange. Plus, with Sennheiser's ongoing testing of all units in the series, you can be assured that the drivers hit the target frequency response and match in both left and right channels.

I find the HD58Xs to sound very good connected to just my iPhone or laptop.  Adding the Magni into the mix really elevates things.  Solid and clean bass; detailed highs with no shrillness; excellent midrange that seems very neutral.

With the extras this set up would be more than $300 new.  I'm asking $250 shipped in the US.  My preference is to sell them together, but if you're only interested in one please let me know.  Standard PayPal only, no fees to buyer.  I only ship to confirmed addresses.

Thanks for looking.
