The new Schiit Aegir Amplifier now shipping

Looking forward to impressions on this... apparently if you don't listen at head banger levels it's better than the vidar

I have spoken to a Gordon at Schiit, and told me it will work fine with my passive unit and have plenty of available power and grunt for my 104 db Lascalas. Supposedly, within it's power range, better in all areas over the Vidar, except maybe the nether bass region.

The Schitt Happened Book is a great read also....

count me as a fan of what they are doing for affordable high end made in USA !!!

Bet this is the Vidar with lower rail volts and higher Class-A bias, maybe that why there's no internal shots of it, like the Vidar has???

Not that it's bad, as there are plenty of speakers that would rather have the Aegir's  20 of Class-A and no B over that.
Than the Vidar's 1-5watts of Class-A and 90w of B. Quad ESL57's come to mind.

It is very interesting reading, on the Schiit site, about this amplifier. The FAQ section is full of information, and you also have links to writings of Jason Stoddard and Mike Moffat, the 2 head honchos over there, who btw, have been around for quite a while. The owners manuals are available to read as well. The Schiit is the real deal. P.S. The fellow I spoke with is Grover, not Gordon.
