Great review of the KWA 100!
Quote
Some prefer a detailed and transparent sound without being overly analytical; others believe that music reproduction should be natural with good harmonic density. It’s all a matter of personal taste, but also of system matching. For its part, the KWA 100 brilliantly reconcilies
these two viewpoints.
Could not agree more. This is the aspect I had a hard time wrapping my head around. How could it do both so well?

I had the KWA 100SE from the tour Dan put together. Like it enough I purchased one.

Tour experienced a slight delay as it didnt' work when it reached LoneWolf.  We received it back here and found that the two main power connectors at the rear rocker switch were both completely disconnected.  We are all scratching our heads, as the connectiosn are TIGHT!  It could have happened in shipping, but we don't see how.

Anyhow, just an update, not pointing ANY fingers!  Unit experienced no damage otherwise and once power leads were reconnected, all was good again.  Unit is going back out to LoneWolf and Kristin will update 'Tour' dates as a result of the interruption.

Thanks guys!
