Well guys the mystery amp arrived at my workplace safe and well before 9.00am this morning - great service from Nick as usual.

Upon opening the box I held my breath hoping that it was exactly the model I wanted - and to my great relief   it is. It is in mint condition and looks absolutley fantastic    with build quailty to die for. I wish I'd ordered it months ago when I first saw it on the emporium website - but it seemed so cheap that I just assumed it must be a different model or something.

If I stuck it on ebay today I reckon I'd make a 25-50% profit no problem at all. However as long as it sounds half as good as the reviews state then this is a definite keeper. Should make an awesome spectacle with my black Wadia monolith.

I cant try it out yet as I'm at work but I can't wait to plug this baby in.

As I said before it is a million miles removed from the valve amps I had mentioned before (no tubes in sight I'm afraid bottleneck) - but it should make my Revel speakers sing.

If I can work out how to download a picture I'll post one so you can all drool over it  or take the p**s if you think I've bought a pile of ****
