I have the 1.5K-FA. I like it. I am not heavily into contesting and I'm not
a competitive DXer.
Yes, it's less expensive than the KPA1500. It also doesn't integrate as
well with the K3. It doesn't control the K3's output power when switching
between standby and operate. One needs to remember to do that, especially
when switching into operate mode on the amp - massive overdrive isn't
pretty and could damage the amplifier.
It doesn't remote as well as the KPA1500, either. It comes with a software
control panel that runs on Windows. I use VNC to control the amp when
operating remote.

I’m trying to decide on a SS amp. I already have the KPA500 and love it but
the price for the KPA1500 is a bit above my budget. I am looking at the SPE
1.5K-FA which is about $1000 less. I like the fact that it has inputs for
two radios and 4 antenna connections. Plus the power supply is built into
the same box. I know the response from this list will be pro Elecraft but
any constructive or informative comments would be appreciated.
Tnx es 73,
