VAC 440 Statement mono blocks, any opinions

I recently took delivery of my VAC Signature MKIIa pre-amp recently and I'm smitten with it's sonics, truly enjoying it so now these mono blocks are really peaking my interest.

I'm not looking at replacing my current solid mono blocks but just adding so I can swap pces in and out when I choose too, I use to have two set-ups so I had a few options of amps etc. to swap back and forth which was fun and provided different flavours.

Curious if anyone has heard a well broken-in pair, if yes paired up with what, what were your impressions. They would be paired up with my MBL's which like current, looking at the specs I don't believe there should be any issues.

It's amazing there is enough demand for a 58K amp where Kevin can raise the price by 20K and still a 6+ month wait.

I heard 2 years ago in the peak of the recession, VAC had their best year. Audiophiles have their priorities straight recession or no recession :-):-)

Fplanner2010, I will be very interested in your comparison between the 300.1 and 450 Statements. Like Dev, I'm also smitten with our preamp and planning to get a VAC amp next fall.
