I remember a while back when I thought I had reached the end of the road with my O2s and 007t amp. And then I started reading threads here and, lo and behold, I am now looking at the next stage of audio nirvana and an amp upgrade.
I have boiled the options down to the KGSS or the Egmont Signature. I must say that Justin and Rudi have been exemplary in their customer service. They have answered my questions patiently and openly and have been extremely helpful to me. I just wish I could buy both amps and give them both my business.
I have organised the KGSS (standard chassis) with silver wiring, XLR loop out and Always-On bias supply. The Siganture would have XLR input, XLR loop out and standard tubes (on Rudi's advice given my mix of musical tastes).
The Signature is 3,000 Euro, the KGSS $2,100 dollars (both including shipping to the UK), so the Egmont is about 80% more expensive in UK sterling. An advantage to the Signature is no import tax/duty and easier to send back for repair/service than sending the KGSS to the States.
I think I am sure which way I want to go, but just wanted to have a final check with you guys to see what your preference might be based upon your experiences.
Any input gratefully received.
