Notes: FINISHED product (current line, listed on gyraf.dk/products); full model name is 'Gyratec IX' per Gyraf's legacy naming, current site uses 'G9'. Note: a free DIY schematic/PCB version of the G9 also exists on Gyraf's separate DIY pages (gyraf.dk/diy) — that DIY project is explicitly OUT OF SCOPE and excluded here; only the manufactured G9 unit is listed. All-tube signal path ('no silicon or other crap in signal path' per manufacturer copy); semiconductors limited to PSU. digital_control inferred 'false' (no digital control/DSP mentioned, all-analog unit). powered='true' inferred (mains-powered unit, 230V standard, other voltages on request). No price published on site (Gyraf sells through regional distributors/dealers, quote-based); price_usd left blank per golden rule. country_of_manufacture 'Denmark' inferred from About page (Aarhus, Denmark workshop) rather than stated on the product page itself. Frequency response, gain range in dB, rack unit height, and year of introduction not published.
