Barny –
After much deliberation, research and saving-up, I bought a pair of these and some leads from Stefan at KJF Audio. They are incredible. Everything required is included and these build up into some very sturdy, high-class looking blocks – oozing quality. The build is easy – an hour each, even if going carefully, so they are an assembly job rather than a kit. No soldering. No multimeter. No screen/buttons/settings/nonsense. The instructions could be fuller, but you cannot really go wrong, and others have made videos that you can follow if you lose your nerve. Power – enough to lift the roof. Sound – incredible – see Amir’s review at ASR… these modules were chart-topping for many years, you cannot do much better. The cables were beautifully made too.
These are power amps for the connoisseur and deserve to be twinned with capable speakers and a pure signal. I doubt I will ever buy another – they are built to last.
I cannot recommend more highly. And great service too – fantastic to be able to support an independent UK company, and a European centre of expertise with a single purchase.
