Both are desktop amplifiers, $1199 against $1245. This page puts them side by side on the only three things a maker can be held to — power, output impedance and noise — and then asks the question that actually matters: which headphones do they treat differently?
The Violectric V222 reaches 100 dB on 567 of the 567 models here, the Schiit Mjolnir 3 on 566.
| Specification | Schiit Mjolnir 3 | Violectric V222 |
|---|---|---|
| Power into 32Ω | 1.0 W | 2.7 W |
| Power into 150Ω | 488 mW | 2.7 W |
| Power into 300Ω | 500 mW | 1.8 W |
| Power into 600Ω | 250 mW | 1.1 W |
| Output impedance | 0.13 Ω | 0.25 Ω |
| Output noise | 25 µV unverified | 6.15 µV |
| Price | $1199 | $1245 |
| Headphones it reaches 100 dB on out of 567 | 566 | 567 |
A figure marked not published is missing from the maker’s own material, which is not the same as being good or bad. Where one of these two publishes a number and the other does not, the comparison on that axis cannot be made at all — and saying so is more useful than guessing.
1 headphone reaches 100 dB on the Violectric V222 but not on the Schiit Mjolnir 3 — Symphonium Titan.
566 of the 567 models here reach 100 dB on both. That is a power count and nothing more; whether either source suits a given headphone also depends on the two lines above.
Each has a page of its own with every power figure traced to what the maker published and a full headphone list: Schiit Mjolnir 3 and Violectric V222. Or put either against your own headphones in the source comparison tool.
