according to this review, the Mimas is very close to the Calypso/Atlas combo and is better in some ways, sound density is mentioned.

Aesthetix Mimas vs. Calypso + Atlas?
I have been very happy with an Aesthetix Calypso Signature preamp, and have been keeping an eye out for a used Atlas or Atlas Signature amp. I’ve heard great things about the Mimas integrated, and wondering if that might be another direction to go.
Has anyone has heard the Mimas compared to the
Calypso + Atlas combo and can speak to the differences in sound?
