Pulled the trigger on a legal limit solid state amp. I sold my 1.3 back to Richard. I have had the amp about 1.5 weeks. I have it connected to a Flex 6500 and a Yaesu FTDX10. I bought the Cat Cables from Dan which really are a must have. With the cables your drive power and alc are controlled to not overdrive the amplifier. The signal produced is pretty good and doesnt stray much beyond the TX bandwidth and I am being very critical here. Amp is quiet it sits right beside me and I operate SSB and no one can hear the fans. Now that I have gone through and tuned all frequencies and the Cat Cables are connected it is just pick a frequency and transmit. This amp is going to make me lazy but I am not giving up my tube amps! Overall pleased with this large purchase. A printed manual should be included for $7k USD. 73 KC1TQN

I did a ton of research on solid state amplifiers before I decided to purchase this SPE 1.5 K-FA Taurus. It is not the cheapest but in my opinion based on my performance, other reviews and chat on the groups.io SPE group, this amplifier is definitely best in class! Took me a bit to wrap my head around the fully automatic operation and initial setup ( I'm coming from tube type amps, latest a 8877.. ) but after everything set up this thing is a monster! It truly creates an automatic 1500 watt radio out of my ICOM IC 7610. I am not using automatic antenna switching currently but that might happen in the future. The protection circuit worked wonderfully the one time I forgot to select the correct antenna. 100% output on digital modes if you want. Lots of headroom available because of the dual LDMOS devices. Lots and lots of positive impressions with this amp so far, nothing negative. And, great service from MTC! Thanks Richard!
