Ain't much in there! Must be that $9,000 transformer. Darn thing sure sounds good though. I guess this is a true minimalist design.

Actually, Julian, there's a lot more in there than meets the eye, just like Transformers (ha ha! no pun intended!). The photograph doesn't show the level of complexity of components and subassemblies that is actually present inside the chassis.

It's one of the best sounding components I've ever heard.

I actually owned this Gamut amp and sold it . . . stupid me!

I wish the DartZel looked as good as the GamuT then it would be perfect.

The ModWright KWI200 is a soon to be released integrated (will be released and available to audition at RMAF) that might be worth consideration:

Joe, that ModWright is a serious looking contender...
