The new Schiit Aegir Amplifier now shipping

I have spoken to a Gordon at Schiit, and told me it will work fine with my passive unit and have plenty of available power and grunt for my 104 db Lascalas. Supposedly, within it's power range, better in all areas over the Vidar, except maybe the nether bass region.

It is very interesting reading, on the Schiit site, about this amplifier. The FAQ section is full of information, and you also have links to writings of Jason Stoddard and Mike Moffat, the 2 head honchos over there, who btw, have been around for quite a while. The owners manuals are available to read as well. The Schiit is the real deal. P.S. The fellow I spoke with is Grover, not Gordon.

" 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.

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.
