Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly

Is anyone in the Audiogon community using the Bob Carver 180 mono-blocks? I just placed a new pair in my system and I am really amazed at their performance. I am using them with the PS Audio PWD/PWT, First Sound MK-III and Tyler Acoustics D1 speakers. The price to performance ratio is outstanding. The Bob Carver 180's are producing an extremely clean, clear and open sound-stage. I can safely say they will compete with mono-blocks costing much more.

Hi Guys,
I have picked up a pair VTA 180 with GP volume pots and did bypass the attenuator found the sound open up a little more, more resolution with clarity. I however found the deep bass is lacking and thinking of upgrade the output tube to kt120 or kt150. Can anyone here with such experience with KT150 please advise?
