Otomon Labs. Soundgate Japan


Has anybody purchased an amp made by Ken Uesugi from Otomon Labs/Soundgate in Japan?
I’m seriously thinking of getting a 2A3 amp, but keen for any feedback. Everything I’ve read looks good, but buyer experience is invaluable. 
Thanks in advance.

I bought a Sanei SA560 2A3 SE amp from Ken/Otomon. Won it at an EBAY auction for $1250. This included shipping from Japan. No output tubes! Had to provide my own - Electro Harmonix Gold's. I still consider the $1250 a fair and reasonable price! The Sanei uses all Tango transformers and is excellent build quality!
I'm surprised that I won the auction because there were a lot of bidders and the action was hot until the end! 
Ken's site on the BAY has a lot of nice audio gear at reasonable prices! I also bought two Fidelity Research tone arms (FR29, FR54) from him. Prompt and safe shipping!
