Except for one person who likes to complain about everything, you will find most owners are quite happy with their LA-1K.? I initially had one issue where the thermal paste under the final was put on to thick, and oozed out and caused a flash pf blue that lit up the room when I keyed down.? I immediately unkeyed, unplugged the amp and called Palstar.?? They said I could clean around the final to remove the extra paste and test it, and if I discovered damage, to send them the unit back for repair.? Fortunately, I was easily able to clean it off and there was no damage done to the contacts or solder points, and its been going good for two years now. ? Very well built amp, with excellent support for actual issues.
