Great value, in my opinion, although, as noted, they are out of business now. Tim De Pavarancini of EAR did some design work for them; not sure if he had a hand in all their products. VERY well thought of in England around '96-97.

There was some talk there a couple of years ago about problems of thermal runaway, but I don't know the models. I wouldn't spend a lot on them, but they might be fun if you are willing to take the risk that could "flame out"
