What's smart 845? It's a Unison Research amplifier but apart from that?

Hi Andy,
I'm smart845, yes named after my first tube amp and beautiful she was too.
I met you a few years back and bought some 10ys off you to build a 10y-it-45 but it didn't work out.
I've built an amp following Jeff's mentoring and you must come and hear it on my Avamtgarde Duos.
I'm not too far away in Stoke Newington. Pop round for tea and biscuits.
You may be impressed.
Cheers

Ah! I get it.
Not my kind of speakers I'm afraid. I'm panels not horns, and even then I could only manage a thin ribbon panel for the mid/treble. So it's a full range unit by default, like 5" or 6".
Avantgarde Duo Omega isn't my kind of thing, and too big for my room really. I can do thin and tall but not wide in any way - would obscure the light from my french windows.
I'm sure it's interesting to hear, though.
I'd be interested to hear his 45 amp.He has described it in detail but I don't remember him posting a schematic.
The power supply, as described, will be very un-stable.
The driver stage is the antithesis of what I would do but with speakers as sensitive as his, *Who* knows?
You really should look him up and go have a listen.
Please let me know what you hear.

Hi Tre,
I'd like Andy to pop round for a listen and get his impression. I only know one chap that is into amp building and he likes the sound but he builds those Ncore amps not tube amps.
I really would like someone else's opinion on how it sounds.
Maybe it's too far removed from panel speaker sound. I don't know.
Andy, if you want to hear some Royal Blood or Shostakovich then it's open house. Let's have a blast.
