Inspire SE power amps by Dennis Had

Hello everyone,

It looks like I will be buying one of these power amps created and hand built by Dennis Had the founder of Cary Audio. I noticed them while looking at Chinese amps. The price of Mr. Had's amps seems very reasonable. They are essentially one of a kind signed and dated. Does anyone here have experience with these SE amps ?

 

Link?

 

He does not have a website. He founded and retired from Cary Audio. He sells through Ebay. Here is a link that you may find useful:

I am surprised that I did not stumble upon his Inspire line years ago. I have admired his work for decades.

 

I haven't seen too many posts on the SHTV forums, but there is a pretty long thread on his amps over at Audio Aficionado and a lot of posts on Audio Circle as well. The general consensus is that they are great and well worth the money!

 

I think there is a long thread on AK as well and several owners contributed
