But she's used to it now.
In fact, it's showing signs of wear and she agrees we'll have to find something similar to replace it with when the time comes. :thumbsup:
The property was built in the 60s and is now in its original 1970's refurb - wood panels, original 70s table, chairs, sideboard and light fittings.
Very trendy - the 70s are "in".
I think it looks cool. :smoking:
Hey, never diss a woman's 'rug'... :eyebrows:

Well, after a bit of a saga and some kind helpfulness from a fine and talented AOSer (Alan "Firebottle") the Myst G Ohm amp combo is back chez Jerry and sounding very nice indeed.

As you can see there are 'cosmetic issues' - aka it need a chassis paint job! - but the front fascia panels are OK so that doesn't really show when installed in most racks / shelves. I'm sure that will get sorted sometime, though.
Resolution of detail is excellent and as Alan has hinted elsewhere the Myst has seriously good bass control. He says that's cos the amp is direct coupled, and I'll take his word for it. :eyebrows: Alan guesstimated an output of 80wpc or more and there is certainly no loudness limitation in my setup.
Another aspect of the sound that struck me straight away is tonal neutrality, it's only when I hear something like the Myst amp that I realise how coloured other amps can be. The Myst, or so it seems to me, just gets it right.
And Alan's superb Firebottle phonostages showed that the 3D imaging capability of the amp is uber-top-notch. Gosh, that was amazing, definitely a bit of a jaw drop moment,
The connection space at the rear is a bit tight ....

.... but my preferred Epiphany Acoustics Atratus 3 RCA leads can just squeeze in by the heatsink. Spade connections on my Virtue Audio speaker cables are also kind of fiddly to attach. But we're used to that sort of struggle, right? :)
Overall a very, very nice amp indeed - but it does have a seriously strong competitor for my affections ....

There is something about that Restek integrated that just hits the spot for me. :eek:
But maybe the Myst G Ohm will hit the G spot. :D
looking good
