I see what you're getting at, how about this one? Just as a starting look.
Mastech 5KW VARIABLE TRANSFORMER VARIAC 5000VA 0-250V - eBay (item 380161906580 end time Oct-04-09 17:28:02 PDT)
I have a Mastech DC Power supply and they seem to make serviceable gear for the Hobbyist.
Hi,
I'm wanting to buy a VariAC. Here's one from MPJA, hows it look?
2KVA 0-130VAC VARIABLE TRANSFORMER-MPJA, Inc.
This one seems to have the amperage to do anything.

I don't know if you put your cans back together yet, but I used Dynamat Extreme on mine. I pulled off the Foil on both sides and used the "Tar" as a flat blob on the back of the driver. I'll send you some if you still want to damp em'

Very interesting comparisons here.
How do you compare the 717 vs the KGSS?
Could you give a "personal" hierarchy of how you Tier them? Showing levels and also showing amps that occupy equivalent levels?
From reading most threads related to DIY or third party, you kind of get the idea not to get any STAX amps.
I think they look killer! I take full responsibility for wielding this level of Power...
I've attached a little video of some work I was doing in my backyard last night, just needed to straighten up a few things...
