Is $599 a good price for a factory built Ella (Diyhifisupply.com) with the audionote caps, choke filtering and the kiwame upgrade? Please any help would be highly appreciated as I have a limited time offer for this.
Follow Ups:
Well I sent pictures of the internals of this ELLA to Brian (of Hihidiysupply) and just by looking at it he said this isn't a factory assembled unit as claimed. He also said the amp doesn't have Kiwame upgrade or the silver wire upgrade as claimed. He also went on to say that the wires in the amp seem to have overheated (some blackening at the ends) so he asked me to be careful and fully verify the function before buying this unit. I think I am going to pass this one. Too bad for me as I was almost at the verge of buying this unit.
I hope you post his name/handle.
Online seller on Audiogon. His ID is Nakolawala. I think the amp is already sold as I didnt find the listing today. The ad was too good I guess. I hope I am not breaking any rules around here by posting his ID here.
I have esentially the same Ella except for the Kiwame's and I used Clarity caps instead of Auri's. I reviewed it here. Go for it.
Too bad you don't get to build it!
Just kidding : - )

i've looked into their pieces and have read good things about them. just be sure to check out the overseas shipping, as it's not cheap. enjoy!
FWIW - I met Brian Cherry earlier in the year and heard Ella.
And very nice she was too.For that money - it sounds like a bargain.
Have you tried posting on the DIY Hi Fi Supply forum.
I'm sure you will get lots of thumbs up.
