Good Afternoon,

Tough decisions ahead, but the 845 hasn't seen any action since the 300B have landed in my lounge…
So as fabulous as this single ended valve integrated is, and as much as I would love to keep it, it will have to go I am afraid.

Some review and technical info here, first and foremost (courtesy of HIFI NEWS)

http://www.mystere-eu.com/uploadfolder/hifinews_march2013_mystereia11.pdf

Please note that the unit for sale ONLY runs 845 power valves unlike the one tested in HIFI NEWS.

The unit is about 4 years old (I am the first and original owner), so well run in, and in fantastic condition. Always used in a Pet, Smoke, kids free home. It comes with 2 x Psvane 845 power tubes (less than 2 years old), 2 x Full Music 6SN7 (2 years old as well), a J/J ECC83 (a year old), and a 5W4GT BRIMAR NOS (2 years of use as well). It also comes with the full original valve compliment (shuguang china). So you get one spare set.

It also comes with a handy little metal IR remote control to manage volume on the unit from the comfort of your listening seat.

Don't be fooled by the small 12W figure, this amp can go LOUD, and I mean LOUD!

It has worked beautifully with rob's Fostex Horn speakers, some Triangle Antals and also with my current Tannoys. It is probably as good as it gets in terms of Thermionic Single ended sound below a £1000. Also, in winter it doubles as a really beautiful radiator:eyebrows:!

I have priced this at £750, it reflects the age and the actual price of a brand new unit. Basically you get a full spare set of valves for free.

The unit weights a hefty 37 Kilogramms, testament to the size of all 5 transformers on board. I haven't got the original packaging anymore, but the spare set of valves comes in a nice wooden box.

So consequently this is COLLECTION ONLY from SW LONDON.
I WILL NOT POST. CASH PAYMENT PREFERRED

Drop me a Pm and I am happy to demo the unit at your convenience.

Thanks everyone for your time.

Thanks guys! Indeed, it's a fantastic performer. :)

Although manufactured in China, these products are very much upmarket from the usual Chinese fare. All voltages are 240v, perfect for a smooth and happy life��.

Francois if I wasn't already wedded to my Audio Note I would be sorely tempted... I've always wanted to try the 845 valve.. and I bet it keeps the room nice and warm too ;)

Indeed Bev,

It makes for a warm experience in the winter.
Otherwise, it truly doesn't sound 'warm'. Authoritative and transparent would be closer to the reality!
