”Hey all,
When we introduced the original Vidar 6 years ago, it reset what you could expect from an affordable power amp. Eschewing Class D and switching supplies, Vidar showed that “affordable” didn’t have to mean “under $5,000.”
Today, let’s blow up the world again. Meet Vidar 2, a completely reworked, refined, reinvigorated Vidar…now with an all-new, clean-sheet layout, a more advanced power supply, a new 32-bit microprocessor control system, more advanced parts…
…and the one feature that everyone wanted…a standby switch.
Press the button, and Vidar 2’s power draw drops to just a watt or two…while keeping everything ready to roll for the next listening session.
Oh yeah, and Vidar 2’s price? $799.
It’s available now at Schiit.com.
