    Wow, that's about as minimalist as it gets.

    @Kattefjaes, I'm in the same boat as you. I tried to get a Gungnir Multibit last month when I was in the US, I ordered weeks before I arrived. They sent me an email during the last week of March saying that it would ship mid april. I canceled the order since I wasn't gonna be there. At the sonority site (schiit-europe,com), they said from the 19th you will be able to order one. I assume the UK site will be similar. Yggdrasil's seem to be a little more rare.

    There are listings from same guy on Audiogon and USAudiomart for a previous demo now secondhand silver Vincent SP-331 for $825. He also mentions a Saga and Modi multibit he is interested in selling as well (see second pic in listing). I have the Vincent SP-331 loaner and Saga here and they easily outmatch my speakers. I would go after the Vincent but I am holding out to hear Vidar.

    Yeah, I am dubious, the UK dealer is extra slow and unreliable. Often stuff is in stock at the EU dealer, but not the UK one- but the EU one has agreed not to ship to the UK, which is frustrating. I have often ended up just having to get stuff shipped direct from Schiit themselves via Fedex, as they are less hassle to deal with.

    I asked him, and he said "$315 w/ free shipping" for the Saga, if anyone is interested.

    A few comments coming your way...

    From the ad: the front light is taken off but it has nothing to do with the sound or any functioning
    Comment: Mildly humorous. So I get to pay a $100 premium ($1400) and I don't even get a front light?! Dibs!!! PS, I wonder what else is "taken off" under the hood.

    I guess the light was too bright for him? Should be easy to restore back to original.

    Looks like he is selling the one that he bought in January. http://www.head-fi.org/t/832694/eddie-current-black-widow-2

    "The only issue is that the power indicator light fell out of the socket and is inside the body of the amp (see pictures for details). This can be easily rectified by opening up the top of the amp and putting the light back into the hole, and it does not affect the performance of the amp in any way."

    When a seller says something is "easily fixed" I think, if that was true, the seller would have fixed it before selling it.

    (You can see that he paid $1350 for it back in January.)

    Edit: It looks like jrosenth bought it in the original listing (I guess that didn't work out) but it shows up in hrq12345's feedback as the buyer.

    Jabba The Hut didn't give a shit about Han Solo voiding his Millenium Falcon warranty; he just wanted his damn money. But Craig probably doesn't want you f'ing around and taking parts off.

    I was wondering why there was a Jensen Iso-Max pic in the Head-Fi listing.

    I'm surprised it's still available. If I didn't already have one, I would have snatched this up.
