Here’s your ultra-high-end amplifier, without the ultra-high-end price. Vidar 2 is nothing less than an all-out, exotic-topology, Class-AB, linear-supply, microprocessor-controlled, power-doubling, dual-mono-ish, intelligently-managed, drives-almost-anything power amp that you’ll be happy with for a long, long time. Maybe forever!

Totally Modern Convenience…

Vidar 2F has all the modern conveniences you expect, including a compact form factor, a convenient front-panel standby switch to save tons of power, and an intelligent microprocessor-driven oversight system that ensures the amp is operating optimally at all times—and protects your treasured speakers from harm. 

…with Old Skool Quality

At the same time, don’t let the features fool you. Pick up Vidar 2F to get a real feeling for the beefy 600VA transformer inside. No Class D, no switching supplies, no fans…just powerhouse performance, delivering 100W per channel into 8 ohms, doubling to 200W per channel into 4 ohms.

Forkbeard™: Power Output, System Health, Remote Standby

Vidar 2F includes Forkbeard, the only multi-product, multi-stack, unified control system. One iOS app gives you complete visibility of instant power output, amp health, remote control of Standby mode, and integrates with many other Schiit products.

Stereo or Mono Flexibility

Combine Vidar 2F with a single-ended preamp like Saga S or Saga+ for an insanely affordable, insanely high performance system. Crazy? Want more? Run two Vidar 2Fs from a balanced preamp like Freya S or Freya+ for true monoblock performance and 400 watts per channel into 8 ohms.

Intelligent Oversight and Protection

The Schiit Vidar 2F, has a microprocessor that oversees all important aspects of amplifier operation, from DC offset to over-current and over-temperature faults. This provides stable, safe operation without invasive current-limiting, fuses, or active devices in the power supply path. In English, Vidar makes sure it’s operating optimally at all times—and protects itself when it needs to, so you can be assured of excellent performance for a long, long time.

Made in USA. Really.
