Looking at the parts used and the design it sounds like it might be kinda neat. Custom tango iron for 2.5k? Maybe I'll grab this for a K1000 amp. Some of direct coupled design? Yeah okay I really don't know enough to know if this is any good ;p

Currently using a pair of 300B monoblocks to drive my AKG K1000 (out of a 1212m acting as pre / source \ )

Maxed out version costs $2790 and to my ears, is pretty good value. http://www.diyhifisupply.com/diyhs_Le_Club_Hifi.htm - scroll down to LD3++

Sounds very good!

I chose this amp because the design was resurrected / championed by Thorsten Loesch, whose work I've been following for a while.

Looks decent, I wonder what kind of transformers they use.

Hey, I've been looking for a power amp to drive the K1000!

And also for use with a Stax transformer box.

Man I guess Tango is out of business so those Tango transformers on the amp I posted is even more ideal in my mind. Worst case if it sucks can cannibalize the transformers for something else ;p I wish I had some k1ks to justify the purchase.
