Santa arrived a day late. I paid for the Skunkie Spec KT120 OPTs on 07 November via PayPal. They were shipped on 13 December, made it through Customs on 18 December and arrived in Washington State, USA, on 26 Dec. Considering these OPTs had to be built and were shipped during the Holiday rush, I'm very happy. They have that "new transformer smell". They will go on the shelf waiting for me to start building the amps. Meanwhile, I am starting the EAR834 Phono Pre.
