I don't have headphones, but now I want a Mogwai!!!!
Did they sell that pair of blinged out Focals?
Why "jungle mushroom magic"? Because that's how lush this zero-feedback amp soundsand the input tube is a 6SL7, which is surely the most richly-textured of all high-mu twin triodes. This is mushroom magic because the Mogwai allows the user to roll-in a choice of output tubes: the KT90, 6550, KT77, KT66, EL34, and, last but not least, the 300B-like 6L6GC beam power pentode. Tube bias is adjusted automaticallytherefore all of these mind-expanding tube-rolling possibilities may be auditioned by the user, without worry or fuss. Output power is 2Wpc class-A into 8 ohms and 1Wpc into 32 ohms.
The Ampsandsound Mogwai and all of its parts, including the transformers, are made in America.
Who could ask for more? In case you forget: the Mogwai is a fine wire-and-wood audio pet that costs only $1850 I must have one for review! Right now!

I guess it has only one input, so does that make it a power amp with volume control, or an integrated amp designed to work in conjunction with a preamp?
So when you review this, be sure to let us know how well the high-efficiency speakers do filling the room with sound. I do like it loud sometimes.
