Although I have no experience at all with K1000, I'm really interested in them (on the long term). With two exceptions, Nick Dangerous and some SAC amp users, almost everybody seem to agree that K1000 matches best with tube amps. I read several interesting, informative reviews, but I could barely find any information on how would compare (driving the K1000, of course) amps like ASL's 1005 DT (or DTI, something like that), ASL's cheap monoblocks, RKV, the vintage Fischer receivers, Bottlehead Paramours, etc. etc. You certanly may also include in your comparisons stuff like EAR V20 if you have experience with it, but I won't be ever able to buy that... Please be as specific as you can. I'm especially interested in speed, medium and high freq. detail, transparency and natural reproduction of acoustic instruments, but feel free to write in your own style.
Thanks!
Oh, by the way! In August I e-mailed SAC company to ask something about their discontinued amp for K1000. They answered, in their not-so-perfect English, that they will release a "newer and better model in any month". For what it's worth.
