Based on my KPA500 there really isn't much to "build" except the case and a bit more assembly for the PS.
On my KPA500 I spent as much time rounding up missing screws than I did building. Of course, Mama E sent me the missing hardware very quickly. I wound up with Stainless screws from Ace Hardware on the interior and the black coated ones on outside locations. I have not had it open since I got it working. A great amp.
I am going to sit this one out (unless I win the lottery) but you guys have fun! It's about 1 to 2 $K less than I anticipated.
