Should I sell my accuphase for this schiit


I have a super bad ass totally restored Accuphase p-250. I kind of really want to buy a pair of schiit aegir and use them as monoblock amps.  Am I crazy? Will the aegir blow me away? What do you think? 
This is for a bedroom system.

all the usual tweaks.

@georgehifi I haven't done much digging to verify how significantly the quality degrades when bridging an amplifier.  Though I did recently look at the "Guaranteed" specs of the Accuphase A-65, for example, which is a super high quality amp with a massive power supply.  It shows an improvement in THD while in bridged mode, provided speaker ohm is not less than 4 ohm.  However, they still claim bi-amping is best for "optimum sound quality".

Stats below from  http://www.accuphase.com/cat/a-65_e.pdf

Total Harmonic Distortion Stereo operation (both channels driven) 0.07% with 2 ohm load 0.05% with 4 to 16 ohm load
Monophonic operation (bridged connection) 0.03%, with 4 to 16 ohm load

Can anyone explain the above stat and why it contradicts the claim that bridging has a  negative affect on distortion?

All you have to do is look at the impedance loading recommend after bridging compared to when in stereo and that will give you an idea all is not well when bridged. Everything takes a hit, except for 8ohm wattage output.

Well, I'm not sure you looked at the specs... The distortion is clearly lower down to 4 ohms.  Can you explain that?
