Schiit Aegir power amplifier low power Class-A linear amp Stereophile review


Here is the Stereophile review done on the Class-A Aegir.
Seems to be one great little amp for efficient speakers for $799.

Would also be great for the mids and highs on a bi-amp-able speaker with a $699 Schiit Vidar on the bass.

I posted about that review on the audio karma forum.  There was surprise expressed, with one poster immediately disparaging Stereophile.  Mind you Stereophile also praised the amp brand that this particular poster was raving about, but no word on whether Stereophile got those amp reviews wrong as well!

That's a major achievement for Schiit, they are really on a roll.  
I'm very happy with my 12wpc Dennis Had tube amp, but have been interested (or just curious about 'em) in a Pass XA25 for a while, although haven't dropped the 4900 clams for one yet...I own a few Schiit products already and think they're very well done and sonically superb items (preamp, EQ, headphone amps), but the Stereophile article bumping the Aegir to "class A" got my attention and perhaps saved me 4 grand...I haven't pulled the trigger on an Aegir yet but I might soon as it just seems like a lot of fun for relatively small bucks. Note that now that I've mentioned this a few times I'm gonna look like an a'hat if I DON'T buy one...damn...painted into a corner...
