Thanks for the feedback.Simons amps are quite exclusive imho at the ‘Kondo’ level of amps and within reason and Simons guidance can be further ‘tweaked’ to suit both your pocket and desires etc. When you are considering buying what as akin to a Rolls Royce yes there is an element of ‘if you need to ask’ but those of us who have asked etc have never been treated with distain by Simon and he is nowhere close to being labelled as ‘pretentious’.
I still think it would be more welcoming and helpful to potential customers to at least state that "prices start at..." (we're not talking Kondo price levels, are we?).
