The new Schiit Aegir Amplifier now shipping


Looks like mono configuration will not work with rca-XLR cables. Requires a true balanced connection. 20 watts a little low (for me anyway) for SE connection. I'm looking forward to reviews on this one

" Mike's a very smart guy ". Reading about both the Vidar and the Aegir, I would say Jason Stoddard is a smart guy as well. In fact, not taking anything away from either of them, Mike seems to be the digital guy, Jason seems to be the amplifier guy, with both overlapping to the other. BTW, Georgehifi has been a huge advocate towards Schiit gear here. Enjoy ! MrD.
I know Jason did SUMO and yes, Mike did Theta.

And yes, both seem sharp.
I know a lot more about what Mike has done. So i only speak about stuff i have some experience with.  That's all.

Wasn’t Sumo James Bongiorno??, I loved the sound of the Sumo 9 Class-A, a very innovative circuit multiple rails and floated too, too bad he use an opamp for the input, could have been a cracker amp.

It's all good. I just wanted to bring up Jason as the other half of Schiit, and his contributions. That's all folks ! Enjoy ! MrD.
I asked Jason whether he overlapped with Jim when they were at Sumo. He said they didn’t. Apparently, Sumo had two lead guys after Jim departed and before Jason arrived at Sumo.
