Kinki Studio ex-b7 Power Amplifier Bought locally from DacMan https://dacmanaudio.com.au/product/kinki-studio-ex-b7-mono-blocks/ Had it for about 12 months, best power amps for the money but I am looking to go back to Integrated for more flexibility. Have original packaging so can post if interstates. Manufacturer description: The EX Series has been optimized to deliver well-balanced sound quality with a smooth extension in both high and low ends, achieved through meticulous tuning of the midrange. The EX-B7, which represents the pinnacle of this series, is a statement monoblock power amp th
A Kinki Studio ex-b7 at A$3,000 is a bit ambitious against your local comp set: it sits above the A$3,130 75th percentile only in name? No — it’s actually below that, but still well over the A$1,899 median and the A$1,612 25th percentile, so this is not a bargain-priced buy. The upside is that it’s still within the upper part of the market, so a clean example can make sense if you want this amp specifically and the condition is genuinely good.
What makes it worth considering is the ex-b7’s reputation for serious grip, control, and a generally muscular, high-current presentation that suits revealing speakers well. If it’s been cared for, with original packaging and accessories, that helps; if it’s unknown-condition, you’ll want to verify service history, channel balance, heat behavior, and any signs of hard use before paying near the top of the local range.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
