Otomon Labs. Soundgate Japan

I also am a VERY satisfied customer of Ken Uesugi.  I have purchased a fully custom pair of 300B monoblocks (C3g -> 71A -> 300B driven, interstage transformer) that are 101% stunning in every sonic regard, and visually off of the charts.  I requested certain topology and spec, paid the down payment and didn't bother him after he commenced work.  He quoted 90 days, designed, built and completed them in almost exactly that time and shipped them UPS Air in which they arrived at my door OVERNIGHT!  While waiting for the amplifiers I modified my rack and cables to suit them when they arrived and also bought a stock of a few main and backup tubes (fingers-crossed - only one 71A failure so far!).

Truly amplifiers that I will never part with.  These may or may not be better or worse than anything else out there, but let me put it this way: I have zero want or desire to ever replace these as my main piece in any system I will ever have.  These will go to my daughter as heirloom pieces after I pass and are absolute treasures.

Maybe true but at what price?

Very very high recommend tube amplifier maker. Recently, I ordered VT-62 tube amp, this one > http://soundgate.net/product/MTQ2NQ...highend

Ken 's service is very very good, he is very kind, response my mail very fast. But the most impressive is quality of product. This is one of the best amp that I have heard, sound is really incredible. It impress me much from the first time as hearing the fist note of music from the amp, and it is getting better and better every day. Im very satisfy about this amp.

I have been keeping my eye on the thread as I had ordered a 2A3 amp and asked for some customization. Excited to report back. 

Communication was great and easy. No issues. I frequently visit Japan and was able to arrange for a free local delivery about six weeks after I placed the order. I picked up the necessary tubes while in Japan so I would be able to listen to it when I immediately got home.

Amp was packaged quite well and there were no issues checking it in with my luggage. Unpacked it all and plugged it in last week. WOAH! Legit blown away by it. Really really really happy with my purchase.

I had a friend come over this past weekend to do some A/B with his custom 2A3 that he had purchased from EIFL a few years ago. Ken's outperformed! My friend is now looking into purchasing his next amp via Sound Gate.
