    Bought new B-stock from Schiit on 08/2020 for $1300($1500 after tax and shipping) asking $1000 $925 fees and shipping included in CONUS for friends and contributors only.

    This thing weighs a billion pounds, so I think the included shipping should make for a pretty good deal. I also have a pair of Hosa Tech 5' XLR cables for an extra $10 with the amp or $20 on the side. 20 gauge OFC with Neutrik connectors, good construction, like new because I made shorter DIY cables a week later.

    The Ragnarok has been used lightly with efficient desktop speakers and headphones, I searched hard to find the "B-stock" flaw, there's a bit of rough machining on the bottom side of the bevel for the volume knob, shown in the last pic, otherwise it's perfect. I have all the original shipping material, power cord, remote, manual and Schitt decal. Everything has functioned perfectly, smoke and kid free, spent it's whole life in the same spot on the top of the rack. This has been my favorite SS amp, but I'm mostly listening on my DIY speakers these days and they prefer tubes.
    Full disclosure, there was some mechanical transformer hum, not through the speakers, but from the amp itself when I initially plugged the amp in to the same power strip as my computer/monitor/etc, but it went away when I moved it to it's own outlet. I read something about DC making it's way back from some devices on a shared outlet to cause that kind of mechanical hum from the transformer.

    p.s. if you're not using something like pirateship.com, definitely look into it. for big heavy things, it's shockingly less expensive (like, 30-50% less expensive) than going straight up to the UPS or Fedex counter with a big heavy box. GLWS!!!

    Bump for price drop, I know there's usually crazy deals here, but I'm between jobs and have to use audio funds to keep my audio hobby going, so this is the only drop before it goes to other sites.

    if you’re in between jobs, you should get as much as you can! Post up elsewhere and make that money.

    Seems it's not worth as much as I thought, dropped price on other sites to 925 plus shipping and fees, so dropping here to 925 with shipping and fess included.
