I decided to add a MIDI sound module to the collection. I figured the SC-55 was a good start since it is a classic.

The Vidar looks so sexy...intersted in how it pairs up with some mid~higher range bookshelf speakers

Mine works great with Harbeth P3ESR XDs, and Harbeth 30.2 Anniversaries. Plenty of power for near field listening.

Mine is running some Dynaudio Excite X14. Love it.

Man that's so good. Makes me wanna pull the trigger ; )
I'm thinking about pairing the Vidar 2 with LS50 Meta. Any thought or suggestion?

That's gorgeous. I've heard they are great speakers. Definitely need a demo sometime (despite they are a bit out of my budget rn, but who knows ?

Likely a great pairing, Jason has said a time or two that Vidar works best with speakers that make it work hard. In the past I used my Vidar with Elac B6 2s, and Magnepan LRSs, both lower efficency speakers. Both driven nicely by Vidar.

I guess that makes Vidar a workaholic

 

[evantilu]

Yea. A happy lil workaholic that brings everyone happiness

I guess that makes Vidar a workaholic

To borrow a quote I read somewhere. The Vidar is possibly all the amplifier that you will ever need.

I haven't tried it yet, but I'd heard is a good pairing.

If one Vidar proves to be insufficient, it's easy to add a matching second Vidar and run them as monoblocks.

Tell you what I’d do man…

The mini stack just grew a little. Black sheep on the bottom so as not to offend Vali 2.

I've used it on my floorstanders to great effect. I think they can really drive anything. And if you need more headroom it's easy enough to add another one.

The Vidar aren't really "bridged" as monoblocks, which apparently can cause some degradation. They just use the balanced signal to drive the left and right channels directly or something. Someone correct me as I'm undoubtedly wrong.

P.S. This "bridged" information is incorrect because the Vidar isn't a Continuity(tm) amp as I had assumed, as revealed by @Jason Stoddard post: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/sch...bable-start-up.701900/page-7224#post-17354025

I need a rack like that! Where'd you get it? (I may have asked before, sorry for the repetition if so)

Also, impressions of the Pi?
