Anyone heard of DK design group?

I have seen the DK VS-1 Reference Integrated Amplifier up for auction both here and on ebay. For the price and from the picture it looks great. However, No mention anywhere else aside from the company website:

According to this, it's Blue Diamond Elementary School.
Then you might want to ask, who is D1575?
I always have to wonder when seeing a post about something I've never heard of by someone who hasn't posted before, or very little.

I spoke to one of the reps at AAC Distribution in NJ. These guys are distributors of many high-end audio brands. According to him, DK Design Group is owned by Conrad Johnson, although it is operated as a completely separate company. Go figure.

The amp may be legit (a lot of people seem to like it).
BlueDiamondAudio may not be.

Do some checking into the dealer you are looking at buying it from.

Caveat Emptor.

The DK amplifier is a terrific amp and I am very happy with it. I think that the rumor about Conrad Johnson is complete nonsense. By the way, I have also tried contacting Blue Diamond Audio and no one answers the phone and I never got a reply to email that I sent a month ago.
