What is the lead time for these?

They can give you an estimate if you drop them an email. It all depends on what you what and if they have everything in stock to make it. Mine took about a week or so prior to shipping. However, it took over two weeks after that to actually make it into my hands. I suspect it languished in customs, but, it is hard to pin point.

Any further listening conclusions guys ,after longer burn period ,and aganist two other competitors used to show a scale ?
 
Looking forward to hear from anyone involved.
Also if some of you guys compared it ever with D.Sledge ATC or Tribute attenuator - that would be nice to hear about.
 
By the time this unit is no brainer for the money with its building quality and custom options available

I bought also one of the Khozmo attenuators (round one, quad type). It's used for a KGSSHV with balanced inputs. Unfortunately I have loud clicks in the signal while switching. I searched this thread and found nobody with problems.
 
I contacted Khozmo a week ago but no answer yet. Bad service :frowning2:
 
Did anybody open the attenuator? If I get no replacement from Khozmo, this would be the last chance. I guess the contacts are dirty and I should try to clean them with contact spray. What else could I try?

I believe the problem is that the wipers are adjusted to wipe too lightly.
Adjusting the wipers so there is more contact force should solve the problem at the expense of losing the silky smooth feel with the lighter contact force.

sounds like its probably an overreaction to the early models that were too stiff

What about these amps is making the problem show up?  Higher sensitivity?  I'm considering having one of these put in a tube amp, but have been wondering if I might be further ahead just going with the Goldpoint.  Getting twice the number of steps for the same price is attractive though, the thing I dislike about my current stepper is the steps are physically spaced wide enough that it makes the mechanical action feel crude.  Having finer attenuation range is also handy.

Thanks for the answers. So it's quite "normal" that their attenuators make problems. Not nice. 
 
Are there any experiences with the service of Khozmo? I don't accept to pay a lot of money for a not working product.
