Mike, sounds great. I have never heard of Korato amps. I am interested to hear some impressions of them. Oh, by the way, did I tell you I moved to Texas?

I think you'll like the synergy with the Korato gear.  The amp is rated to 30W in Class A and then AB up to 100W.  A local customer of mine brought over his Sapphires a couple of weeks ago and the combination is one of those that just clicks.

Korato is made in Europe and has been very highly reviewed there and by a couple of North American online magazines.  I am just the first one to import it into the U.S. 

Stop on by and take a listen.  We'll definitely have some show specials.  Bring your music by - I have a music server with 4x500 GB hard disks in RAID 5 array for a total of 1.5 TB of storage.  We'll be happy to rip it so you can listen through the outstanding Boulder setup (Statement SB3, modded Burson Buffer, Statement Power Supply).

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Bryan

Eric:

I've heard very good things about Korato . . .  I am really looking forward to hearing this particular setup. Yes, you had mentioned moving to Texas in another post. I trust it was a good move. Where in Texas are you located now?

Looking forward to seeing you!  You definitely had great sound last year...
