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. 
Source: node 2i 
DAC: Gungnir Multibit 
Preamp: Schiit Freya+Amp: Accuphase p250
speakers: ascend acoustics sierra 2ex 
all the usual tweaks.

@georgehifi I tried the diagram with the sys and it does work 👍.  I will make comparisons in the coming days which is better  the diagram with or without the sys . Thanks 😊 again.

You have to use the Sys to lower the gain of the Vidar to match the Aegir.
As the Vidar has 22 x gain and the Aegir is 12 x gain, so there is quite a need for the Sys to be on the Vidar to equalize the gains. Without the Sys your speakers will sound too lower/mid and bass heavy.

Cheers George
