Product Highlights

In Silver finish with an included Forkbeard remote control module ($100 total in upgrades).

The Schiit Audio Gungnir 2 features four Texas Instruments DAC8812C chips, 32-bit/384kHz PCM decoding via Unison 384 USB-C, dual USB-C inputs, optical and coaxial SPDIF connections, and balanced XLR alongside single-ended RCA outputs. Serving as a versatile digital hub, this component bridges the gap between mid-tier setups and flagship separates. It utilizes a proprietary time- and frequency-domain digital filter on a SHARC DSP paired with a fully balanced multiplying analog stage. Its Modular Autonomy 2 architecture allows slide-in analog and digital card upgrades to keep the hardware future-proof. Built-in digital volume control and parametric equalization via Forkbeard enable direct drive of power amplifiers.

Critical reviews highlight its accurate conversion, massive soundstage depth, and effortless musicality that rivals master tape analog sources. Critics praise the Multiform multibit architecture for resolving subtle low-level details while maintaining a natural, fatigue-free tonal balance across all genres. Outlets celebrate its versatility, noting that dual USB inputs and transparent preamp features elevate it far beyond standard DACs.

Integrating this converter into your audio stack delivers uncompromising signal purity and vast spatial resolution to every recording. Its modular design and pristine processing ensure your system remains adaptable and engaging for years of immersive listening. It represents a masterful digital anchor for enthusiasts who demand true-to-source fidelity.
