Anyone heard the Aronov LS9100 monoblocks?

Hi. I was considering an amp upgrade, and wanted to give a high-quality tube amp a try. I listen mostly to jazz and orchestra. On my short list is the Premier 11a from Conrad-Johnson and the BAT VK-60. I have seen several Aronov LS9100's come up recently, but I can't find much, if anything about these monoblocks. They seem to be well priced for their power (110wpc) but I was wondering what the sound was like? I will be trading up from a McCormack DNA-125 (a bit too grunty for my tastes-looking for something a bit smoother and more musical).

Has anyone heard the Aronov's? I am running Soliloquy 6.3 speakers and an Eastern Electric Minimax preamp. Hoping for at least some feedback on these amps-thanks!

Oh yea.. these are great amps but most likely more locomotive than you need to pull your little train.  
With a little work they can be cleaned up and will sound as good as what's next on your list as long as they are compared to any PP/tube design amp..  w/KT88s they sound even better.   pc
