You won't be able to drive the KPA800/1500 products to their full output with a bare K2.
I don't understand the reluctance to add the KPA100 but at the same time suggesting a smaller, non-Elecraft amp to drive the new KPA800/1500. You can build your KPA100 in a separate case if that's the problem. Otherwise, you will be one of thousands of Elecraft customers happily driving a KPA800/1500 with a K2/100.

What with Elecraft's eventual HF AMPLIFIER(s) product, becoming available - I'm wondering if this will mean new K2 builders will not need to go the KPA100 in-chassis amplifier route? I've never felt good about building and layering a KPA100 amplifier on top of the great little K2 bare bones rig. With the new Elecraft AMPLIFIER(s) - will us with bare bones K2's - need to beef up the basic K2 output, to drive the new Elecraft amplifiers? Will I need a HF PROJECTS 35W amp in-between?
