Experience with Modwright products?

Currently, I'm running in a Modwright LS99 preamp and KWA 99 monoblocks.  I have a dealer friend who wants them broken in or me to buy them or both. :)

Other than hearing Modwright products and briefly chatting with Dan at shows (he seems like a wonderful human and humble), I don't have any experience with their products. 

I thought my next move was going to Luxman, Allnic, Audio Research, or even a Japanese tube integrated.  Wow, am I impressed with this package out of the box. The linear Mosfet design with Class A up to whatever it is (say 25 watts) is really appealing to me. I run large horn loudspeakers. Just loving what I hear so far.

I have to imagine the products are built as well as they feel and service and relaibitily are stellar. Resale looks strong too. 

What experiences do our fellow 'Goners have with Modwright?  

Thank you all for your opinions and insight.

I have a Modwright PH 9.0X that I just got back in May of this year. I love it. Checks all the boxes for me without being absurdly expensive. I'm sure the PH 150 top of the line model is probably even better, but I'm not quite at the $10,000 phono stage level of gear myself. 😅

The PH 9.0x is a winner for me though, and beat out others in the general price range that I tried in my system by a pretty wide margin.

Very solid construction and feels pretty high end, despite the more...accessible price point. Ability to experiment with various tube replacements, MC cart compatibility, etc.

I see myself keeping this one for a long time!

I'd love to hear the A30 monoblocks someday (I'm more of a fan of SET amps, myself). I do wish he made some lower power SET amps as well - like 45, 2a3, 300b, for example.
