New Toy - Can you identify?

This little baby arrived by courier today.



I thought it might be interesting to see if any of the gurus out there could identify it first (not including those who I have told of course). Maybe one for Lee or Dean?

Tell you what though, it's bloody good!

 

S & M, sounds like oyur enjoying it sir!!!
Those tube dampers are rather 'Non *****'
I know 'I'll love it' We'll trie up next week and you can demostrate it for me sir
Congrats on your new beastie S & M

 

Its an amplifier! I'm gooood

 

Well done Tenson. What sort do you think?

WM - I will say it's surprisingly fast, it will certainly confuse some flatties!

 

It appears to have a surprising number of transformers in the signal path. Good.

 

The control electronics for the Millennium Falcon?

 

There's only two Markus - and they are the tiny little squares at the back. The larger two oblongs are not trannies ;-)

 

Graaf??? no?

 

Nerd(s).

 

A Macintosh?

 

From a steel tinger, spike pinger and glass ringer ....

 

Well I think Markus knows and is being ironic! Come on guys - what's different about the circuit? Clue. It's a 75wpc power amplifier.

 

Of course I know, you announced it on pfm.

 

American? British?

 

Chinese Hi Fi (revisited)?

 

It's got Hal-O tube dampers fitted, I was thinking about getting some of them.

 

It's a "valve" amplifier

 

Time to spoil the party:

Michael.

 

A Zero-Hysteresis amplifier?

Does that mean that if you don't like it you can't send it back?

 

Hi,

Michael is correct. Interesting looking amp. I have never heard one but have heard a few OTL in the past.
