2 Power On LED.
When this is lit, the
power is on. When it’s
not lit ... well, you get
the picture here. Mjolnir
delays the output for
20 seconds when first
turned on to protect
against turn-on thumps.

1 Volume Knob. Turn
it to the right to make
the music louder. Stop
before smoke comes out
of your cans. Seriously.

3 Four-Pin XLR

Headphone Jack. This
is where you plug your
balanced headphones in,
using a standard 4-pin
XLR connector. In case
you missed it, DO NOT
use any adapters for
single-ended head-
phones. They short the
outputs together. Boom.
Well, not boom but
click. That’s the internal
protection saving you
from frying the amp.

4 and 5 Three-Pin

XLR Headphone

Jacks. Alternately, you
can connect balanced
headphones connected
with two 3-pin XLRs
here. Right side is the
right channel, left side
is the left channel. And
yes, you can run these
outputs simultaneously
with the 4-pin jack.

6 Top Vents. Mjolnir
runs plenty warm, and
needs the airflow out of
these vents to keep its
cool. Don’t block them
by stacking other
equipment on top. If
you want to stack, put
the DAC on the bottom.
