Actually, the main reason for delay on the KPA800/1500 Amps was the K3.
Almost 12 months ago we decided that we could not bring both the
amplifiers and the K3 to market at the same time. It would be just too
much of a strain on the company, both fiscally and engineering resource
wise. We made the business decision to delay the amps in favor of the
K3. (A relatively easy one when you look at the total revenue/profit
difference between the two.)
Since the K3 was still a well kept secret at that time, we couldn't
really say much in public about the reason for the delay on the amps.
We will not put the amps back in the process of final engineering
release until we are fully caught up with the K3 backlog and we are in
full production. I suspect that will go over well with those of you who
are -very- patiently waiting for your K3's. :-)

Now I return to the reflector, nearly a year later, the K3 is real (and
4 or 5 people have evidence to suggest it's shipping!), but the
KPA800/1500 are still "real soon now"? What's going on
