dk design vs-1 information needed


I know there has been another thread started on this intergrated, as an audiogon member suggests, it is a tad warm in his system, anyone else have these results?
Also curious if anyone is using the phono section and the quality.
Any info from owners would be greatly Appreciated
Thanks to all

Also, let me just say that the DK amplifier is by far the best amplifier I have ever heard. After some break-in the amp has the most amazing bass, transparency, and lushness. Nothing in my experience even comes close.
audio-billy:
where did you find the CCA tubes? Anymore available?
Please shoot me an email.
I concur that the DK DEsign VS-1 MKII is very neutral, especially using Amperex white label PQ shield gold pins or the Siemens CCa gold pins. It can be warmed up a bit by using Telefunkens or perhaps Mullards, which I don't and have never cared for.
Santanaali - Does it have enough gain for a 0,25mV MC cart and selectable loading (my cart is 100 ohms)? How do you find the performance of the phono section? How does it compare with other phono section you used? BTW, I also got Frank at Signal Cables to make a silver IC for me and I found it to be superb too.

Many thanks in advance for your help and advice.

All the best,
Neville
