Thanks for sharing :). Other than the Sta-9, did you have a chance to compare the P3 to anything else? Other than the lack of power, did you feel there were any other negatives?

Can any of the owners talk more about the sound quality, maybe in comparison to other amps? Does the ACSS make an audible difference? Did you guys find the neutrality to be a match for other audio gd gear?

I still love the X7, but I'm excited to see mbyrnes shoot out against the Modi Multibit.

It does seem like the sagas tube magic is a plus when the Vidar finally drops.

My memory is faulty I'm making a new desk setup and I'm strongly considering a BMB, Saga, and BasXA100 to HD6XX and Ascend Sierra 2s.

Did you ever get around to doing that Momby v X7 showdown?

Not saying that I want to, but if I did want to use the X7 for its DSP effects but wanted to output the signal to another DAC and Amp, how would I go about doing that? Thanks guys

We've sort of been conditioned to accept that hifi/even summit fi performance demands exorbitant cost. Every now and then a company comes along and says "I can make a product do the same thing yours does, but without an extra zero added to it". Unfortunately these companies, like Schiit, push...

  I was thinking of grabbing one Vidar for my desk stereo and using the balanced out from the Jot on top for my headphones and as a source. Not a good idea :(

  ' Thank you, that was my approximate guess. I might be interested in doing a second desk setup with a Jot Vidar stack

Here's a Vidar related question I hope noone will mind answering: How wide is the Vidar? Based on the pictures online, I'm guessing its Jot wide?

I never stopped stressing about Vidar. I want a pair and push them through their paces against some heavy hitters

If you go to the Creative website you should be able to download the X7 Drivers package along with the ASIO drivers. Then just use the ASIO output mode with your music player of choice. Personally I use foobar2000 in ASIO

Where did you hear this?

Exactly what I was planning, I was curious if there was a more elegant solution. I also want to avoid using SE to the Raggy, XLR all the way

What's the best way to get the Yggy to output to Freya and Ragnarok? I don't want to buy two DACs for my desk and HT setups.

  I'm sure on paper the Vidar Freya combo would perform better, but the question is whether the LS50s would benefit from that extra capability. I think the Ragnarok would be fine for the LS50s, but if you step up to some full towers that are in the class of the LS50, I would hands down go with...

Wow, I like the anodized look, might spring for that. Thanks for the suggestions folks

  I've been waiting on the off chance the black versions show up on their website, but I am starting to get sick of waiting.

I wonder how much it would cost to have the Yggy and Raggy powder coated black. I'd have it done myself, but I don't know how to preserve that sweet Schiit logo

I'm hoping Vidar has the price to performance ratio of things like the Freya, Gumby, or Yggy. It's pretty annoying to have to drop 5k a monoblock to make high end speakers sing. On one hand the amp companies have drilled in that $700 isn't going to buy an excellent amp, but on the other hand is...

I really like the design of the store, it's classy but still relaxed, well done. Since KEF and Salk are on display, I want to see some Blade Twos and Soundscape 10s being powered by two vidars. I bet that would cause audio dealers some serious stomach problems :D

Now that I know there's no Yggy 2 coming, I feel better about it being the source for my endgame setups. I'm going to be running Yggy to Freya to Classe CAM600 to Martin Logan ESL 15a. I also wanted the Yggy to Raggy to Ascend Sierra 2 and HD800s on my desk but the Stereophile measurements have...

  The man has spoken, I'll grab an Yggy so it can serve double duty between my desk and HT setups. I'm still iffy on the Raggy for use with my Sierra 2's, but I can't pass up the aesthetic combo of the Yggy and Raggy as well as the convenience of being able to run everything in one place.

Am I crazy for holding out for an Yggy2 and Rag2? I'm redoing my headphone and 2.0 desk setup and I want to step it up to endgame levels.
