How do you improve the original Aegir? More power, lower noise floor, less heat. No-brainer, right? Well, let’s throw a wrench in the works—and add Halo™. Meet Aegir 2F.
Introducing Halo™: Breakthrough or Illusion?
Halo is a mixed-mode feedback topology that incorporates your loudspeaker into the gain stage, offering the potential for motion control and better acoustic results. Some have claimed this improves measured performance at the driver, but Schiit haven’t been able to confirm that. Nor did we think you want us spending 5 years to end up with an amp that costs £6,000 due to R&D costs, and research results that people will still argue about. So we decided to simply introduce this product, price it fairly, and let you decide. Yes, Schiit are insane. But you knew that.
Forkbeard™:Class A indication remote standby and Health Alerts.
Aegir 2f includes Forkbeard port, A multi-product, multi-stack, unified control system. One IOS app gives you mode visibility (Class A or not), power output, health alerts, remote control of Standby mode, and integrates with many other Schiit products.
Improved Continuity™: More Power, Cooler Running
Aegir 2F also offers Schiit's exclusive Continuity™ output stage, there way to eliminate transconductance droop outside of the Class A bias region. It also solves the NPN and PNP device mismatch problem, since it uses both NPN and PNP devices on both rails. Now, they have improved Continuity’s efficiency with some tricks they learned on Tyr, resulting in a more powerful, cooler running amp.
Refined Classic Design
Aegir 2F also delivers a lower noise floor, thanks to a completely redesigned, 100% linear power supply. Starting with a 600VA toroidal transformer, it features dual mono design with 16 Schottky rectifiers for the main rails, plus with 5 regulated voltage rails, including two discrete regulated rails for the boost supply. No Class D, no switching supplies, no fans, no compromises, nothing in the signal path but music—for a three-figure price tag.
Improved Standby Mode
Not using your Aegir 2F? Push the front button to reduce power consumption to 1-2W, while keeping everything ready to run. Plus, microprocessor oversight guards against over-current, over-temperature, and DC problems, providing complete fault protection.
Made in USA
By Made in USA this is what this mean: the vast majority of the total production of Aegir 2F—chassis, boards, transformers, assembly, etc—comes from US companies manufacturing in the US.. The chassis, transformers, and PCBs are made in California and Aegir 2F comes together at the San Antonio, Texas production facility.
5-Year Warranty
Schiit Aegir 2 F is covered by a 5-year limited UK warranty that covers parts and labour.
