Mystere ia21 a good integrated ?

+1 @yogiboy - That LSA amp  an impressive suggestion, I was surprised at the high quality sonic performance available brand new at this price point. Not many in high-end audio but this looks like a bargain.

This might interest you. It has a remote and preamp outs!

its around $1200  and has 12hrs on it. female owns it.   is harving some hard times and has sold off all her Klipsch speakers and this is the last piece.

I told her keep it a while longer.  she can always pick up more klipsch but she will not find more of that same amp.

im probably going to buy something like a Willseton R8 because it has a remote. hers does not.

thanks all

"What others at that price point?"

yogiboy- It's a 12 year old amp. Compare it with the $3K tube amps of that time.

Some of the features-pentode output(most are ultralinear/triode) stepped volume and the build detail make it stand out. 

The OP likely is looking at close to, if not 1/2 the price, so it's a good deal. He just needs to find a pair of speakers that sound good to his ears. 

Just a subjective call.

It’s girl talk I tell you…

Can we discuss punctuation and other bullcrap items in these forums? I didn’t get enough whining from the 60 yo at the gym today. 

@tablejockey

What others at that price point?

yogiboy-? What are you asking?

How much less? @tablejockey Name a few!

It's a nice amp. Maybe more "tubey" sounding and quality build comparing others in the price point.

Speaker choice as with most, is paramount.

Trust your ears.

Its the same model but local to me from individual and less money

Is this the one that you are thinking of buying?

Read the review supplied by Yogi. The main concern is the high output impedance supplied by this amplifier. One needs to know the impedance characteristics of the speaker one wishes to use it with. 

Whats considered a good price? Its several years old even though its barely used.  
 

was looking at the Williston R8 also.  
 

the Mystere is somewhat local.  There isnt a lot of info out there other than 2 reviews 

Mystere is built in the same factory as Prima Luna and is designed by the same team.  It is a more purist form of Prima Luna. 

If the price is right, go for it!

Nice review!
