Odyssey "Khartago" Stereo Extreme" amp compared to Schitt's "Vidar" amp

Wrong. Schiit gear $799 and $699, equalling $1498.

Odyssey Khartago is $999. Go with a new suped up Odyssey SE and STILL be under $1500. Or buy that used Khartago se (the way I'd go) for $999 and get an unbeatable deal in sound for price....

To embrace what georgehifi was saying, you can get a pair of Nuforce STA 200’s at $499 each and, passively, vertically biamp the 7s. Most people are clueless to a configuration like this, but it is quite amazing. I am using the exact set up on a 3rd system, with a pair of older Signet towers I own since new, and it portrays excellence in sq. BTW, the Triton 7s, with the newer midbass drivers, are an excellent for the money speaker. BTW, the Nuforce STA 200 is very high gain, and likely will not work with the CJ preamp. My advice....get rid of the CJ and go passive ! Detail galore ! Ask georgehifi about that. YMMV. Enjoy ! MrD.

Not saying that George's idea Isn't a dandy, just pointing out (a bit too bluntly now that I read it) his price points are incorrect.

his price points are incorrect.

Over here in Oz there on the money, even "if" a bit more over there, the Schitt combo would still sound better than the equivalent Odyssey or higher for that matter. As you’ll have real 20w class-A running the mids and tops.
The best A bias an Odyssey could manage would be 5-7w with their rail voltage and heatsink, and monoblocks are just bridged stereo amps

Cheers George

Hey, George-  Have you actually compared the Odyssey Khartago Extreme to the Schitt combo, or- are you making assumptions?
