Trying it with my lambda pros now and they have also improved a good amount.

the KGSSHV Design is a collaboration design between kelvin and spitzer so the Mjolnir Audio is the one and only official model although the design are out their for everyone to build. the board Mjolnir use are also different in size compare to the normal one out there.
Except no. The KGSSHV is the high voltage version of Kevin Gilmore's KGSS.

There are many different DIY builds of the Carbon by various third parties, but the made in Iceland Mjölnir Audio KGSSHV Carbon (which was born out of a collaboration between Kevin Gilmore and Spritzer) is the original, "official" model that was built without compromise. More info could be found here.

oh apparently my information is from songmic post...may be he is wrong in this case...but I am quite sure that I saw something similar on headcase...
Spritzer did tool part in its design.

You are compounding the KGSSHV and KGSSHV-Carbon in your initial post.

I have the sr-007 on backorder, but lately I wonder if I should just swallow it and change my order to a sr-009. I listen mostly to classical but thought I’d enjoy the darker and more impactful bass of the 007; but i now read that the 007 has trouble keeping up with complex orchestral passages. Any comment would be appreciated.

What are you planning on using to amplify it? When amplified correctly it is wrong to say that it has trouble keeping up with anything. It is extremely revealing. The 009/009S may be slightly more revealing (at the potential “expense” of other factors) but to say the 007 has trouble keeping up with anything is incorrect (unless you are using an amplifier that cannot feed the current it requires)

007 speed is excellent when pairing with the right set up. However, 009 match classical songs really well and if I were you, I would upgrade to 009 purchase.

Would agree here. Don't think you can go wrong either way, but with classical definitely the 009 will shine more.
