I did some work for my local audio dealer, and got paid partially with gear,
In March of this year.
I had hoped to keep these units for myself (I have always loved the Mod-W gear), but need the cash more than the gear right now.
This have been used for all of about 10 hours. They are in mint/as new condition, with all original packaging. I’ve packed them back in the box, and would challenge anyone to even know they were ever used.
Dealer says they are late 2014 production.
Combined retail is $7745 for the pair. I am looking to get $5500 for them.
I would prefer Paypal.

KWA-100 Amplifier ($3795 retail - black)
The KWA 100 provides the strengths of both tube and solid state products: 3-D sound-staging, holographic imaging, and a beautiful midrange of tubes, combined with sparkling highs, low distortion, bass resolution, and control of solid state.
The heart of the KWA 100 Amplifier is a single voltage gain stage called the “Solid State Music Stage.” The circuit was developed by Alan Kimmel, creator of the exceptional vacuum tube “Mu” stage.
Mosfet output stage design. Features include: high-low bias switch, and true balanced floating inputs, accepting balanced and unbalanced inputs. The design incorporates a regulated power supply for the input stage, and oversized heat sinks. The first watts operate in pure Class A.
The KWA 100 uses no global feedback, is direct-coupled, fully differential, and designed and Handmade in the USA.
LS-100 Line Stage Preamplifier ($3950 - Black)
The design goal of the LS 100 was to pick up where the 9.0SE, our first product to be produced, over seven years ago, to the next level. We strove for improved sonics, aesthetics and functionality.
We Succeeded!
Single-ended design with 10 function remote control, (2) 6SN7 (Driver) and (1) 5AR4/GZ34 rectifier. Single gain/buffer stage, phase inverting, five standard inputs, one Monitor input and tape output, one Home Theater Bypass (HT/BP) input and three main sets of RCA outs.
Remote Control Functions Include:
Preamp Functions Include:
Sonically, the LS 100 offers a greater control, ease, musicality and resolution, all perfectly balanced for the ideal musical experience. Frequency response is flat from 20Hz to well beyond 100Khz. Soundstage is extremely wide and detail and microdynamics co-exist with a tube warmth and natural musical presentation that must be experienced!

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
