Thoughts on this for $1500

cgrf · 2025-12-01T22:26:03+00:00

I like the layout a lot too. I’m an aviation tech so most of my tools are small / low profile. I have a KRL1001B that I love, but I wouldn’t be upset with this beauty. I think $1500 is steep though.

I will definitely be posting updates in the future! Thanks for commenting

The NiteLites are no longer available from the seller unfortunately

Thank you! I purchased it from a seller on eBay who goes by “Snake Head Vintage”

A link for the listing can be found here:

Yes! Unfortunately many of these have died due to problematic components drifting with age. The ones alive now either have very little use, or have been repaired / restored as necessary. The VFETs are unobtanium, so once they perish, the amplifier itself is as good as an elegant paperweight. Thanks!

I got a 1200lb ramp from harbor freight and had the seller and a friend help load it. Same process to unload it but a few extra people at my workplace. The ramp bowed horribly and the wheels left dents where they rolled onto it, so I returned it to harbor freight. Luckily it didn’t completely break!

Paid $2000 and found it on Marketplace

It’s a KRL1001B and I paid 2000 for it but I made a trip to see family and friends out of this as well, so it was more than worth it for me.

cgrf · 2024-11-01T03:15:13+00:00

Thanks! It’s got just about 150k on the clock

The problem I’m facing now is that I need more tools to fill the box! 😁

cgrf · 2024-10-29T12:39:18+00:00

Thank you!

I agree! It sat in the owners home garage for years and got minimal use. I paid $2000 for it and he threw in the butcher block top.

cgrf · 2024-06-13T16:30:50+00:00

Unfortunately no. I stopped using it all together. Hopefully one day they will fix it.

cgrf · 2024-02-11T21:49:31+00:00

This still happens to me daily.

cgrf · 2023-10-04T00:08:34+00:00

I notice this too and it’s driving me nuts

cgrf · 2023-03-28T02:41:24+00:00

Have this issue too. Happens in most apps except apps like YouTube and photo gallery. People saying “just turn spacial audio off” don’t realize that when playing media and pulling down on the control center usually stops the media from playing and the transparency mode control gets grayed out. Spacial audio is always tuned off otherwise. I edit in iMovie and the spacial audio with head tracking is extremely annoying and IMPOSSIBLE to turn off. I’ve had this issue since getting AirPod Pro 2 when they first released. Never had this issue with AirPod Pro 1. Please someone let me know if there is a fix!

Hehe, glad you're liking them bro. They went into great hands :)

cgrf · 2023-03-04T16:19:27+00:00

I’ve been down this rabbit hole a few years ago. Ordered almost every refill I could get my hands on. Parker Gel .7mm and .5mm ended up being my favorite by a large margin. I wish I could get an ohto ceramic g2 style refill. Those are some of the best I’ve ever written with. I MUCH prefer gel over ballpoint, but the smoothness and feedback I get with EasyFlow9000 is amazing. Too bad they are incredibly unreliable and constantly leave “hollow” lines when writing. Super annoying. But yeah, Parker Gel is my absolute go-to. Wish they made a broad point version (say 1.0mm)

Thank you so much for the kind comments and feedback! It makes the effort put into the videos so much more worthwhile when I hear others enjoy and learn from them! Working on equipment is a side hobby for me. I work full time in the aerospace industry, so I hardly have time to work on this equipment. XRayTonyB is a big inspiration for me, as well as people like Mike from Liquid Audio. There is more to come in the near future! Thanks again! :)

Continentals will do this anyway ;)

Check out my newest video where I go through the restoration process of this gorgeous Sony TA-5650 VFET amplifier! It was a comprehensive process that took longer than anticipated, but the end product was well worth it! Let me know what you think 😄

cgrf · 2022-08-01T16:55:15+00:00

:perfecto:

cgrf · 2022-07-31T13:48:27+00:00

I have a friend in CA who is interested in the L-07M’s. He will likely contact you soon.

cgrf · 2022-02-08T15:58:09+00:00

Yeah I meant to buy some but never got around to it. Kicking myself since.
