Goldmund mimesis 9.5 and Wilson system 8

Hi, I am auditioning a Goldmund mimesis 9.5.

I really like the sound of this amplifier. Powerfull and detailed but I'm no audiophile. I cannot find any literature on the amp. at all. I think it may be a peach but not sure. I would like some recommendation of other amps (solid state) of similar quality from those in the know (ML / Krell?)

Im concerend the amplifier is getting a little long in the tooth and maybe should be buying something a little newer, but there are rare and hard to find.

My budget is about USD 5k. Used, High End well maintained is my preference.

my system is 60/40 multi channel 2 channel

Classe ssp600 pre pro.
Wilson System 8 / Cub centre / bw 805's rear
Goldmund Mimesis 9.5
Theta Dreadnaught for centre / surround
Esoteric UXPI for digital

Cardas Cross for int/ speaker.

Any comments regardign the Goldmund with Wilsons or other recommendations would be hugely welcome as I am a new comer to high end audio.

Thanks,

Rob

The 9.5 can sound great.

But I'd DEFINITELY discover how service for it might be accomplished, should you need it.

I'd prefer to get it in writing, from Michel Riverchon.

Without that assurance, it's risky, regardless of how great it may sound.
