Anyone ever seen a Krell KSA 150 with black face?

Just bought a Krell KSA 150 here on Agon with a black face. I have only ever seen them with the standard anthracite face before. The amp is probably still listed in the classifieds. Has anyone seen or heard of this or is it truly an odball? Maybe a custom order? I saw a KSA 250 for sale somewhere online with gold handles and gold heatsinks. The seller claimed it was a special order. Any FB appreciated!

Yes, I owned an all Black KSA 150 a few years back. It was very striking looking compared to the usual Gray face/ black top/heat-sink amp. I sold it only to go to tubes.

O.K. Good information. I gotta admit looks are very important and I never liked the KSA 150 /250 handles. Their flushness seems functionally useless and at 100 lbs. handles that are useful are a good thing. In black the handles look much nicer, IMO.

I have a pair of KMA-400s with black faces and I love the look of them. It makes them look more subtle, and more refined.
