What's up with this company? They made a splash in mid-2000's, then quiet, then this review comes out two months ago, now it appears their website is gone. The gear sounds outstanding for the money, and has been consistently ranked as excellent in reviews, but it would be nice to get a handle on the dependability of the company. Do you have any insight?
Thanks arthurs, my Clayton monos are also designed and manufactured by a sole proprietor who is a creative and intelligent individual, yet also humble, friendly, and passionate about his concepts and products. The gear from these types of operations, though sometimes overlooked, can be exceptional. Do you know whether Henry has upgraded the original monos to match the sonics of the recently reviewed stereo amp? I still cannot get the website up so will check back on the status next week.
I am the owner of a updated S250 to S status along with mundorf caps. I left my amp with Henry in Houston on the beginning of my Cross Country and I picked it up in the end of it. The S250 Signature powers a pair of amp destroying Infinity Kappa 9s in my mom's place in Atlanta. The preamp we use is a rare Van Den Hul Array-1 or A-1. The amplifier not only runs cool but it is devoid of any intrinsic sonic signature unlike the DNA-225 which replaced it. People who know the DNA will never say that the DNA has much of a signature but it does a sort of drive, that while adding excitement, it can become tiresome after a while. His S250 is like water, there and nothing more. Henry as an individual is not out there to make a quick $$$$ or into overpricing his wares. He like a selected few is into making products that other people can enjoy. The listening session in his house with his Apogees was amazing.
As for H2O existing owner, thank you so very much for your kind words and support throught the years.Henry
