Seller looks solid. The amp I like is my Bellari HA540 OTL amp. The XB1000 has a recessed sound and wide soundstage. Th HA540 amp brings back the missing forwardness, but not in your face. The Bellari should be upgraded with a Mullard 12AX7 tube. The stock tube is not that great. Here' s my post on the amp.
