Does this mean that this could be the WA6?

that is a pretty picture, but i doubt that's the actual amp as it's labeled "phono amp"

Head to head comparisons of my McAlister to HEV90s, that I've done at several meets, showed that the HEV90 is clearly superior. Several listeners concluded that the McAlister's performance was about 85% that of the HEV90, and the HEV90 remains my reference standard. I'm hoping, at future meets, to compare Dr. Wu's amp., and the Aristaeus, to the McAlister, and I'll assume that they approximate the performance of the HEV90, if either of these two amps is clearly superior to the McAlister. BTW, Peter McAlister may be producing a new upgraded amp., and I wonder whether Justin has actually shipped any Aristaeus amps. Has anyone received theirs, or evaluated their Aristaeus' performance with an HE90?

Nope, no Aristaeus shipped yet...

I wouldn't expect the Woo to best the HEV90. Kevin didn't think it held a candle to the KGSS which is bested in that last percentile way by the KGBH.

What I want to see is someone step up and start building the KGST.

That's a tough question...
One year ago I asked Santa Claus to bring me an Aristaeus... and he didn't!
I wrote him a letter asking if he could do it this year... Still waiting for his reply!

Really? Why two weeks?

Because I've been waiting 13 ********* months for this amp and there is always another excuse.I think I might be the first person to pay for this amp,unless someone else paid before last August

There doesn't seem to be much information around about the KGST other than that it supposedly supersedes the KGBH. Is there any more information or circuits doing the rounds? Do we know the maximum output voltage? I'm guessing it would be cheaper to build than buying an ES-1.

If you email Kevin he might give you the schematic. Naturally you'll have to build one then.

Although, if you do, I seriously despair for ever getting my HE60s back...
