Schiit Vidar(s) Power Amplifier I sold off one of my Vidar 1 power amps only a short while ago. Regretfully, as it turns out. 😢 Looking to find another one, preferably in silver, to match my existing Vidar 1. If someone is looking to sell two(2) of them, reach out anyway especially if they are Vidar 2s. Condition: Very Good+ Payment Method: Region/State: (VIC) Victoria/Australia By Timster 2 Comments AUD $650 Date: March 1, 20251 yr
This is a fair ask leaning to a deal: at A$650, it sits below the A$679 25th percentile and under the A$711 median for recent comparable AUD listings, so it looks attractively priced rather than merely competitive. It is not a big gap, but in a compact used market that still counts as a buyer-friendly entry point.
The appeal of this amp is its reputation for serious current delivery and a no-nonsense, high-power sound that suits demanding speakers well. A very_good example at this level is the kind of listing worth moving on if the seller can confirm clean operation, no heat or protection issues, and any original packaging or accessories.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Schiit Audio: Brand Overview
Schiit Audio is an American audio company founded in June 2010 by Jason Stoddard and Mike Moffat, two veteran engineers with deep roots in the high-fidelity industry. Based in California with manufacturing operations in Texas, the company emerged from a shared vision between its founders—who had reconnected after years in separate audio ventures—to democratize desktop hi-fi. The name itself, deliberately provocative, reflects Stoddard's irreverent approach to a traditionally buttoned-up market, born from his wife's exasperated suggestion during late-night garage sessions.
The company specializes in personal audio components, with a product portfolio spanning digital-to-analog converters (DACs), headphone amplifiers, preamplifiers, and integrated amplifier-DAC combinations. Schiit's first product, the Asgard headphone amplifier, launched in 2010, followed by the Bifrost DAC in 2011. The lineup ranges from entry-level pieces starting around $99 to premium offerings exceeding $2,000, with the company positioning itself as a leader in direct-to-consumer audio sales.
Schiit occupies a distinctive position as an accessible yet credible player in the audiophile market. Rather than pursuing ultra-premium positioning, the company has built its reputation on delivering genuine sonic performance at consumer-friendly prices—a philosophy its founders describe as trying to "out-cheap" each other. This strategy has resonated strongly; the company has grown substantially since inception, operating from a dedicated 15,000-square-foot facility and maintaining a reputation for transparency, quality engineering, and genuine engagement with the audio enthusiast community.
