[Elecraft] Amp comparisons

[Clay Autery]

I've used a KPA-500 enough to appreciate the integration with my K3S.
I am using an SPE 1K-FA right now, and it's nice, but required me to construct a custom cable to use it in the most integrated manner.  The 1.3, 1.5, ans 2K-FA require the same thing OR one of the new serial boxes mentioned in the last couple of days.
The KPA-1500 offers both the integration of the KPA-500 and more power than the 1.3K-FA....  Better to look at the price comp between the 1.5K-FA and the KPA-1500.
I like the separate power supply on yhe KPA-1500.
BOTTOM LINE:  My next amp purchase would/will be a KPA-1500.

I'm looking at upgrading my amp. In consideration are kpa500, spe 1.3k, and kpa1500. Obviously increasing In cost as we gain more capabilities.  Any feedback from the group? I was expecting to see more kpa500's for sale but haven't seen many.

Thanks
