My Quads only measure 80 dB efficiency and 2 Aegir's can drive them louder than I want to play my music.I believe Aegir aren't rated or recommended to drive 4 ohm speakers when used as monoblocks.
Impedance doesn't drop below 7 ohm. EPDR not below 6 ohm.
Between 1 and 3 o'clock on the Freya-S dial, depending on the recording.

Hey all, it's time for the next Virtual SchiitrMeet!
This time, we're talking about monocultures and Texas, with me and Tyler. Tyler is our "Director of Finance," technically, but he's really "Director of Miscellaneous." As in, everything that Alex doesn't do, he gets. Fun things like HR, but also fun things like spearheading the Schiitr, leading the Texas expansion, and coming up with ideas like Hel. He also has a graduate degree in philosophy so you can torture him about that side of things too.
So, let's talk AKM and what its disaster means for audio (and us), our expansion into Texas, and other crazy things. As usual, please email your questions to denise@schiit.com
So join us for:
Virtual SchiitrMeet November
Monocultures and Texas
Wednesday, November 18
4:00PM PST
As usual, the video will be streamed on our Facebook site (you don't need an account to watch) and also available afterwards at other sites.
See you soon!

I know they aren't rated for 4 Ohms but have seen a couple of reviews that did run mono Aegirs into 4 Ohm loads without issue. But listening level will no doubt play a big part in this.

The Alamo all tube amp. Push Pull full balanced designed with (4) KT 120 Power Tubes per side. Pulling in a stunning 200W / Channel. Special power button on the front and speaker connections on either side so you can use it as a fireplace insert and warm the family in the winter time.
