As I'm sure you know, sang réal is Old French for "royal blood", a phrase most often invoked when referecing the Holy Grail of Arthurian Lore. I'm guessing Mattrixx-N is pretty confident about how their amp sounds.

The amp's pedigree is fairly deserving of the title; one look at the company roster on Mattrixx-N's website and you can get a sense of this amp's hifalutin lineage. Former engineers and CEO's from companies like Bogner, RCA, Panasonic and Apogee, as well as seasoned freelancers sit at this round table. They've channeled their 100+ combined years of knowhow into this one amp, designed for use with any amplified acoustic instrument from guitar to violin to harp.

The details of what makes this amp so unique are spare on the website:

"Acoustic excellence is achieved by combining a neodymium powered ribbon driver with an advanced low frequency driver along with state-of-the-art preamplifier, control, effects and power amplifier electronics. The result is true reproduction of the highest to lowest notes of acoustic instruments such as guitars, harps, violins, pianos and many others. An optional vacuum tube preamplifier provides the classic warm tonality that many performers find desirable. A unique acoustic cabinet design and operational features provide optimal functionality and flexibility.

There's a wealth of testimonials on the website, and you can download the promotional flier, but I wat to hear this thing. Maybe we'll get the figureheads at Mattrixx-N to send us a tester. . .
