Sorry if I left anyone hanging. I have had a lot going on. I got a transfer from my temporary home in South Florida, back to my home home in South Carolina.
I've had a wonderful experience with Bill both times I've ordered my Custom 225 and Custom 400. And both came in the exact lead time as he stated when ordering.
The Custom 400 was delivered to my mom's house before I moved back. When I got home I unpacked the beast, installed the KT88's, took a deep breath and heaved it up on top of the Eight10!
Man what a sound!! So smooth, so deep. It sounds fantastic at low volume through earth rattling volumes.
I quickly realized that it wasn't my 225 that didn't have enough headroom.... it was my cabinet!! Both amps push it into breakup at loud sound levels.
I also realized that the 225 was plenty amp for me.

I'm old....retirement age. My ears are old and my back is old. I can heave the 400 up on that Eight10 right now, but it might be a problem in the not so distant future! I'm probably going to eat my losses and sell the 400, but at least I know. Both fantastic amps. Glad I experienced the ride!
Oh...and both times I ordered I ask Bill if he would use SpeakOn output jacks. He said no both times. However, to my surprise, there is a SpeakOn output below the 1/4" output. What a guy!
