The Kronzillas have a very wide, deep, open soundstage. Being SET, they have excellent microdetail as well as lots of power. There's no overly lush "tubey" sound, but not a lean sound either-- in my system, very neutral. I have them running the mid/tweeters of my VR5-Anniversary speakers with a pair of Spectron Musician III Mk2 monoblocks (with Bybee and V-cap upgrades) on the bass. The Krons and Spectrons integrate very well. I don't hear any sense of transitioning between the two amps.

You deserve your own thread, those are cool. In the case that you start your own build thread (and I hope you do...) please send a link.

Thanks Kernelbob for these detailed first hand report.
By what you said the sound are really great, looks this hybrid amps are a very careful project.
Best regards
