Harry,

Every "big dog" Legal Limit+ operator that I have asked about this subject
has told me that ALC is not worth the bother.  I drive my amp with the
K2/100 with absolutely no problems and even when I drive it with my
TS-2000, I don't hook up the ALC.

I know this doesn't answer your question but, I just thought that I would
let you know that I haven't found it to be a needed thing.

I believe that Eric drives and Alpha "kay-dubya" amp with his K2 as well
and I would think that if it were something that were needed, it would
have been included with the KPA100 option.
