I'm thinking this piece of Schiit plus a home brew preamp a friend is building may be just the ticket...and affordable!

I'm suggesting that our Mr.HR is a Class A Recommended Audio Writer & Philosopher, >>ps. The first head-mounted transducers I connected to the Aegir were HiFiMan's $2999 HE1000 V2s: ruler-flat 32 ohm impedance, ruler-flat phase angle, and only 297mV RMS required to reach 90dB SPL (footnote 3). Or wrong with it period. It pulls up to 450 watts from the wall socket. The Aegir is closer in spirit to a Class A amplifier offering (according to Schiit) 20wpc into 8 Ohms, 40 wpc into 4 Ohms and 80wpc into 8 Ohms when a pair are run as monoblocks. Great "little" amp, but why didn't Schiit make both this Aegir and the Vidar the exact same gains. I just ordered the new Freya+.

There might be an equally great Company out there.

Overall, the Aegir's sonic presentation was more precisely articulated than the PrimaLuna's. He always makes me want to buy more equipment.

Again, this is for a center channel in a theater set up with two 12" servo subs (soon to be four subs).

I keep reading Stereophile for another Outstanding Discovery like this one that our Tyll & Steve G gave to me at RMAF 2011. ps. This simple recording peeled skin off my body, and the Aegir amp and $549/pair Klipsch RP-600M loudspeakers forced me to play it more than seven times in a row. With the Aegir, the overall sound was more complex and sophisticated— more naturally transparent and relaxed—than with the Rogue integrated.

- Freya + runs very very hot, the panel is almost untouchable, and the hottest area is above the transformer, not around the tubes.

Not surprisingly, poo-flinging distortions were reduced even further when I switched to the $4999 JPS Labs Abyss AB-1266 Phi headphones: the Aegir-Abyss sound was as close to authentic fidelity as I have ever experienced. Back in the Day, early 1980s, I imported and sold British HiFiN&RR Subscriptions to our American Customer Base. I said 'mono-blocks' ...... that is two for stereo :-) .......... Yea, you did, you're right, : BLOCKS not block !!! The sound is not too loud, and might not bother much. Footnote 3: See Innerfidelity.com/images/HiFiMANHE1000.pdf. The Schiit-Klipsch duo did lively-fast and dead-slow. Driving the Harbeth M30.2s, the Aegir cleared the last bits of haze from the Magic Mirror Tent. The Outlaw Audio Model 2200 monoblock ... Manley The Absolute Headphone Amplifier ......... Schiit missed a marketing mark here on dominating bi-amping, However, the Aegir has a 60hz like humming noise from the unit a, Best non-technical operating class description, Classé Delta Mono monoblock power amplifier, Pass Laboratories Aleph 0 monoblock power amplifier, Parasound Halo JC 1+ monoblock power amplifier, darTZeel NHB-468 monoblock power amplifier, Accustic Arts Audio Mono II monoblock power amplifier, Dynaco Stereo 120 transistor power amplifier, Verity Audio Monsalvat Amp-60 power amplifier, McIntosh Laboratory MC462 power amplifier, Gramophone Dreams #42: Sunvalley Audio SV-EQ1616D phono equalizer, Analog Corner #287: The Charles Kirmuss Vinyl Restoration System, Analog Corner #303: Accessorize Your Ride, Audio Research Reference 6SE line preamplifier, Channel D Pure Vinyl 5 & Seta L phono preamplifier, Revinylization #11: James Booker, Louis Armstrong, Oscar Peterson, Joan Armatrading. Besides, those big Amps come in boxes that cost more than the Amplifier contained, making them Show-off Status & Ego type products. I too am looking forward to reading your opinion on the RAAL SR1A. Schiit under-rate themselves, they underpromise yet they over deliver in performance and build quality. thank you for reading my stories

#st, Life and how to live it. Beyond 10 Watts of Class A standing bias, Schiit’s explanation outpaces my ability to boil it down into simpler terms: stay tuned, Just seems from dacs on down, measurements on a whole display more ps sourced harmonics entering into the audio playback vs. everyone else. As an engineer in electronics I very well understand the classes of operation of the output stages and all the intricacies of the crossover region, the feedback, complementary components matching matching, efficiency, etc. Aegir runs hotter than Vidar. If an amp and speakers can't deliver enough authentic high fidelity for me to enjoy two of my favorite songs by two of my favorite singers, what good is it? The Aegir struck me as a design that will withstand and even rejoice in the scrutiny of time—much like the affordable Wharfedale, KEF, Harbeth, and Magnepan loudspeakers I tested it with. Third strike is that they wasted resources on integrating a phono preamplifier instead of using those resources to add a couple of additional balanced inputs to connect an outboard phono preamplifier (and providing ability to later upgrade to a better phono preamplifier) located near the turntable, and to provide a tape loop with balanced I/O for recording the output of the phono preamp with a high quality outboard AD converter.

Went through psAudio's page for getting rid of humming noise, it does not work for me. I did this because it was the finest Audio Mag. I played this recording twice and cried three times. I can trust Mr.HR on this, I've owned Schiit since 2011. Good headphones enjoy abundant class-A power (footnote 3). Would also be great for the mids and highs on a bi-amp-able speaker with a $699 Schiit Vidar on the bass.

....you should have let go along with Joe Roberts. (as much as they might offer good ’value’ at new prices). Seems like a great value for more than respectable performance. Schiit is not a site advertiser. I wonder if it goes 3 steps a time or just the sound, or it's just hard to make it one step / one click. What is it with Schiit and power supply hum?

I'm with the others who have read the review and are itching to go out and get an Aegir -- or two! Jim Austin is the perfect person to review the relatively new JBL Synthesis S4700 floor-standing speakers ($15,000/pair) :-) .......... ... Pavarotti, then I'll wait for one that sounds like Carlo Bergonzi.

#schlosscharlottenburg #herbst #himme, Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space. might help to have access to a bit of wacky tobaccy .

The PrimaLuna put more space and atmosphere into this Columbia Studio A recording. My informed guess is that Cordell would probably argue that the topology, component choices and circuit gimmicks of the Aegir are completely unnecessary and have more negatives than positives. Aegirs are currently back ordered a couple of weeks, so more user reviews should be raining down shortly as it seems there's going to be a lot of those amps floating around. Now, look at all the greatness migrating to Stereophile for a few thousand words ( beautiful voices in a World of Corporate Censorship ).

However: As I listened at length to Cabaret Modern: Night at the Magic Mirror Tent, it became obvious: the Aegir's midrange was more fleshed-out, detail-wise; the Aegir's bass was denser and more completely described. Uncategorized I grew up in Chicago, watching Junior Wells at Theresa's Lounge and stealing Little Walter 45s from the Chess Records outlet where I worked. Hypnotizing. :). I don't suppose anyone here has tried an Aegir, or a pair perhaps, with a pair of HiFiMan Susvara headphones? The Aegir needed to make the KEF LS50s deliver all the twisty yodeling harmonics and rich rustic tones of country legend Hank Williams' voice on "Long Gone Lonesome Blues," from 40 Greatest Hits (44.1/16 FLAC Mercury/ Tidal).

I could use a 400 bridged mode amp, but I'd be wasting money on the amp and money on the electricity to run it. Compared to the Aegir, the ProLogue Premium transcribed a thinner but more transparent air through the top octaves.

Schiit Aegir power amplifier low power Class-A linear amp Stereophile review, The world's largest high-end audio community. I find the used marketplace for Schiit gear irrational at often only a 10% - 15% discount. Schiit sounds like a really bad brand name when I have trouble with the product. I posted about that review on the audio karma forum. Schiit Aegir Thiel CS1.2 ... Now, I have several questions. I like the looks, I like the size and I respect Herb's take on the sound. Schiits perform like Great Voices in Opera: Joan Sutherland & Pavarotti. The LS50's can't really play any louder than 105dB (20dB louder than their 85dB@1 watt specification). The harmonica generates full-spectrum harmonics with extreme dynamics. If the hum is from the speakers you could have an "earth loop" I believe only one piece of equipment should be earthed in the chain (with me it's the amp/s), and everything else feeds off that via all the interconnects. Update 1: I'm looking for a mono block to power my center speaker and not waste a ton of energy or have 400% more power than necessary. Nestled underneath the rack of Schiit gear was the final prototype of Schiit’s newest mono block offering called Aegir we first spied at RMAF last year. However, the Aegir has a 60hz like humming noise from the unit as well as going to the speakers.

Driving KEF LS50s I hope they can provide better quality transformers and add cost to the price. Check out the PS Audio Stellar stereo or mono-blocks (Stereophile Class-A) or the Mytek Brooklyn Class-D amps (reviewed by Stereophile) :-) .......... ... what is your objection to a two-channel amp running in bridged-mono mode? Talking of rebellious, I’m curious to learn what new editor Jim Austin thinks about Stereophile’s sister site Inner-Fidelity using a Schiit employee to do “reviews” and “Canjam reports”? Footnote 3: Just remember to turn the volume down first.—Jim Austin. ps. that I am running with an Oppo 205 into an SMSL 98 dollar amp....and it sounds great.
