New ARC Audio KAR (KS) amps?

[azngotskills 10+ year member]

Just curious if anyone had thoughts about the new ARC Audio KAR (KS) amps? I think we all know about the SE type cooling and new asthetics, but what about performace. How do they relate to the SEs, XXK/CXL, or older KAR? Build quality wise, efficiency, layout, price/performance ratio, etc?

I know this thread is old, but I am also interested in how these compare!

Anyone with comments on the Arc KS amps??? Comparisons to the older KAR amps? How about compared to the Zapco iForce amps?

Anyone?

I currently run the KS amps in my truck. They are absolutely awesome. Much better than the older KAR (A/B amps) imho. I would also put them well above the iForce amps (I am also a Zapco fan). They are not quite up with the new SE amps, but for the price--I haven't found anything better. Highly recommend the KS line of amps.
