The new Schiit Aegir Amplifier now shipping

I keep forgetting that George does not like Schiit Audio.

You need to get a life and see the forest through the trees, and go see who’s Schiit’s strongest advocate is on Audiogon, you will get a big shock sunshine.
But then you’ve done 107 post and 99% do do with a single Tekton speaker thread so you have no idea of what else goes on.

I keep forgetting that George does not like Schiit Audio...and that he thinks he knows EVERYTHING!

Huh?? George, from what I've read in the past, always has praised Schiit's components for the price level. In fact, George recommended trying the SYS passive pre between my Preamp and amp to control tube hiss (My amp is higher than norm output gain, my speakers 101 db efficient). 

Another informative thread drawn through the mud, again. And this is even before anyone has actually heard the component in question. 
Most non-differentially balanced stereo SS power amps look the same under the hood, to the naked eyes. 

here are a few early impressions and temp reading posted on SBAF

@snapsc, nice share of the above link.

@kalali, I attended AXPONA Friday morning and heard their (Schiit) Aegir in an audio system. I discerned nothing offensive about the SQ, which is the best I can discern when I have no prior experience with ANY of the other components in the setup. (That’s the primary handicap of industry or consumer audio shows in general: reference context is a black hole.)

But encouraging one to become educated about a designer’s product by reading the entirety of a relatively short write-up (15 min for most) before pontificating about their confirmation bias in a post is not an evil thing to do. George is usually open minded about most technical discussions. And maybe he read the entire write-up on the head-fi site by now.

And I agree with the last point made by the OP: George always supports manufacturers who devote their resources in product development and consumer marketing with the consumer’s pocketbook in mind (as in savings to the consumer).
