Default Lyric in a Martin OM-21 with Shertler amp

Does anyone have experience with using a Lyric mic system and the Shertler Unico amp? I will try before buying but would like some input. I play rhythm mostly with some flat picking and need great sound from my equipment. I play for venues from 50-200 people indoors as a solo act. I gig professionally full time and really want great sound. I have used Fishman, Ultrasound, Roland and Genz Benz amps along with the Fishman SoloAmp SA220 to date. I want better true acoustic sound. In my other guitars I have stereo systems that are custom but am after great sound for my Martin OM-21 run through a Pendulum Preamp/EQ rack mount. Thanks

I have a Schertler Unico and a Lyric equipped CA GXi. The Unico/Lyric combination is one of the best there is. Period. I've used Ultrasound, AER, Roland, Fishman, Trace and others.

Moreover, the pickup is easy to install, dead simple to use, and relatively cost effective.

The 48V phantom powered mic channel on the Unico is great for vocal mics and the unit makes a sweet little all in one PA. It's volume is quite good.

Here's a video of me playing outdoors using the combo as an all in one PA. The volume is about 60% of what it can do... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cny16Ig7IOo
