Constellation's House Sound Inquire


 I’ve never heard them at the shows or friends...
How do they sound similar most to one of these brands below:
Lamm, PS Audio, Krell, Pass Labs, VTL, Gryphon, Gamut, Boulder, Mark Levinson, Luxman, Air Tight, Jeff Rowland, Burmester?
Also, are Constellation amps reliable?
Their price seems high.
Thanks

Well, if you know the older Class A Krell sound, he led Krell then and designed them.
I’ve read a user report on PS audio’s forum that had owned Constellation and preferred his BHK300 amps. I think Bascom King may have stated the amps were his best work so far. I think The tube input section is the killer feature, and they brought my TAD’s to a new level. The amps are quite reasonable priced since it’s mass produced (in Colorado) and is in a simple case.  I believe they offer 30 day in home trial. There is a stereo 250 that is supposed to be quite good, though the mono blocks supposedly sound better. There is a 500 or 600 watt version coming out for those that need that much power.
Bowers & Wilkins uses CONSTELLATION amps just after they dumped CLASSE to show the new 800/2 speakers during the Brussels audio show, I think it was in 2017.
