Rod, it took about four months. He does not answer emails, but when I called their number, it was Robert who answered the phone. Then, I tried to keep the conversation short, but he is quite ready to talk about his products. Robert & family members personally wire and assemble the preamps. HOWEVER, it was well worth waiting for. I ordered the Gold model and am simply stunned at the sound, which I think blows away even some master quality level CDs I have—Moody Blues, and I don’t think they are true masters. Of note, I ran into the same issue with ordering Odyssey monobloc amplifiers from Klaus. It took for or five months, but, again, the quality of sound is stunning. (I try to avoid buying products from Communist China, as I believe they are preparing for war with all those around them and the United States—I spent 32 of 41 yearsi n the Army and working for the Army as an intelligence officer.). On both products, it was worth the wait!
