I went to some Chinese headfi type websites. Suprisingly, I found a head amp called HP-100 which looks exactly the same (inside, dimensions and weight) as the SonicAdventure amp. (And I 99.99% believe they are the same amp.)
Here are some pics.
Anyone who knows Chinese can go to this website to check it out.

I don't know the history of the two companies and who's coping who or whatever. The same company??? The only thing I know is that a DIYer called 2000ok first anounced the amp in March, 2002 on his website www.2000ok.net and he/she has beening selling the amp since for about $120 USD in China. And the person "2000ok" seems to be well known and respected by many headfiers according to many Chinese headfi type websites I've visited. According to a headfier, the HP-100 is an improved version of an earlier 2000ok amp.
I must say sorry to ServinginEcuador. My bad. You could have saved mosre than have the money you paid.
Be honest, I found there are so many good, inexpensive (tube) head amps in China.
when I saw that amp and the positive reviews, I was so excited.
Then... I saw Kelly's review...then..ServinginEcuador's...
Hopefully ServinginEcuador is the last one to pay that much for seemingly the same amp.
Again, anyone who wants to order the SonicAdventure "Reality" amp should think twice. That's my 2 cents.
