The Master 10mk2 is the perfect amp to me. It delivers loads of power with the transparency in all frequencies at the same time to deliver the best live feel you could get. Great stage with music that sounds as recorded. It is value for money that is not delivered by any other amp i know. With the Magna service that is at 5 star level only..

I ordered the Audio-GD - R1 NOS DAC at Magna Hifi 3 weeks ago on advice of a good friend. As I live and work nearby, I asked Jos to collect it, rather than have it delivered. This was scheduled within a day. While talking about the intended use as a single DAC rather than a head phone DAC/Amplifier. Thanks for the excellent service Magna Hifi !

High end does not have to be expensive. This preamp proves that. I've heard a lot in my life but this is a no brainer. Thanks also Magna Hifi for this recommendation!
Bill January 22, 2025
Thank you a thousand times, the device reached me today…it`s installed and works amazing….....

a few months ago I have purchased the Audio-GD R1 NOS from you and I am amazed by the dynamics and soundstage. Great buy!
Han January 22, 2025
First of all and most important: I love the sound! This amp is made with high grade parts and feels very solid. Fully discrete class A preamp. Highly recommended!
Tom January 22, 2025
Sounds great and features are simply unbeatable for this price. Replacing my Topping preamp - has never been able to charm me anyway.
Norman January 22, 2025
The ordered R1 NOS was delivered in under a week (quite fast for the distance). Contact via email was very friendly and questions were answered quickly and efficiently. Thank you very much <3

I already had previously purchased (elsewhere) an Audio GD DAC (R7HE Mk3). I later discovered (almost a year later), that Magna was offering a couple of relatively inexpensive mod's to the same (new) unit, if ordered, before shipping. Some CAP change-outs and SILVER wire replacements, etc. The new Magna (hot-rodded) unit arrived. It was a wonderful (esoteric) improvement! Regardless of price (and, with this Magna-mod), I believe you will have one of the finest sounding DAC's around (Of course, using the all-important, I2S INPUT protocol.)

I already had good experiences with this brand, especially with R2R DAC's, but I did not expect this upgrade. Really great sound through my headphones. I also use the preamp output. This works best with XLR, with RCA I suffered from slight hum. I am very pleased with my musical friend!

DMP-A8 offers amazing sound and tons of features. Purchaed it with internal 4TB SSD. Comes installed, very good service from Magna Hifi, not seen elsewhere! I’m listening to my music in a new way I’m hearing things I’ve never noticed before. Happy customer!!

Good product the Audio-GD DI20HE, is a very good DDC and a good improvement over the Singxer SU6.
Pedro Nunes January 22, 2025
Jos advised me to buy this DMP-A8 DAC / Preamp. Good guys, good service, will come back for sure!
Martin January 22, 2025
4 letters : OMFG, i'm speechless..... As expected, the DIHE20 (not burned in yet ofc) is putting the 7.77 in non reached level so far......soundstage is huge, and bass are so perfect....... Just a little black side sound, the DIHE20 must burnin i suppose TY Jos!!

Excellent price / quality ratio for Audio-GD products. I didn't expect much, but when I turned on the Audio-GD R2R R1 DAC, I realized that this sound was significantly different from what I had heard from ~10 of my previous DACs, including the R2R. Space, stage, details - everything is here, nothing is smeared out of focus or exaggerated. Surprisingly good sound from Audio-GD, a brand I was not familiar with until now!

After nearly a year of listening, sorry that i write this so late, i don't want to miss this DAC. I tested some more DAC's , but in my opinion the R2R1 NOS is the best u can get for the money. Big thanks Stefan
Stefano January 22, 2025
Great product, nothing else to wish for!
Stephan January 22, 2025
Using those headphones I learnt the meaning of "sound definition". I think quality is impressively high given the price! 10/10!!! Also, exceptional service from MagnaHiFi! I think I will buy also a proper DAC to have the full experience

I own the HE-1 MK2 pre amplifier and the Master 3A power amplifier and I can assure anyone this combi is hard to beat. I did hear a lot of amplifiers like Hegel, Classe, Accuphase etc. but non of them can beat Audio-GD. I use them in combination with a HiFi Rose RS150 streamer and Dali Epicon 6 speakers Sounds like heaven! Would be great if some hifi magazine would dare to test this brand compared to other well known high end brands.
Eric Bartels January 22, 2025
It is outstanding DAC. Sound quality is amazing. I use R28 NOS as DAC/preamp with Nelson Pass’s amplifier Aleph J connected via XLR output. I also satisfied with service of Magna Hifi.
Valeri V. January 22, 2025
After testing Pathos, Classe, Jef Rowland, etc I must say that Audio GD 3A is astonishing for the price, any price actually. Tigh, extend and full bass, very transparent midrange (enfase to voices , cords, piano and blow instruments) and suficientlly airy and resolving top end (a bit harsh at first but after a few days of burn in it]s all gone). Layering and insttruments separation is very good. Soundstage is 3D, texture and expansive, but coherent. Very low distortion at high volumes and full boby in low ones. My sistem is base on Michi P5 and S5 pre and power amplifier, respectly. Rigth now I subjectively perfer the carater of the Audio GD 3A Power Amp. What a dilema! This tell a lot! Many thks for the fellows at Magna HiFi. Cheers!

The DMP-A8 is great. I absolutely love it :) I also bought a DMP-A6 a few months ago from you, but this DMP-A8 is a real beast. Much better sound.
Velibor Cepic January 22, 2025
Free translation: After twenty hours of break-in (probably more than two hundred hours minimum for the must) it heats up like my tube. The sound is already incredible. Dynamic and serious held in an iron hand, and detailed and sweet treble med. The image is already at the beginning holigraphic, and clarity and finesse are there. Certainly he is not ready yet. Regattar with my cayin cs150 base kt150. But sure he'll be closer. The bass will be much more physical and articulated as desired. A true king of the transistor. Ideal with an audio holo dac that benefits from its liquidity and its flawless rhythmic fluidity. A magnificent ensemble in the making. Thank you to jos for his judicious information. I learned the possibility at audii gd to install a pre-amplified input. If the desire to transform is king, yum. Even if its pre integrated section does not have to be ashamed of well known pre specialized, it gives a possible upgrade. It can all be driven without problem, its very serious construction with non negative feedback and the ultra linear system. A delight listened. I am resolutely charmed by this beautiful and big baby. Recommended without problem to all audiophiles and music lovers. Pure analog listening.

Erg tevreden over mijn nieuwe set! Ook mijn CD's over optical naar de R7HE is werkelijk een enorme verbetering. Mijn Sony is van de ES serie maar de R7 is wat betreft DAC veeeeeel beter.
Adri van B January 22, 2025
I currently have an Aqua La Scala DAC, but decided to buy an Audio GD R7HE MK3 for comparison. The result is that I like the sound of the R7HE MK3 much more, and so the La Scala goes up for sale. The R7HE MK3 is a really good DAC. Many thanks also to Magna for the good service.
