They look a bit similar to the Nagra VPA design, though considerably cheaper!
Are mono blocks a must have? If sound quality is your prime objective at reasonable price I would look at something by this gentleman who goes under the name of Fluxion
This is a power amp only and you would also need to supply your own tubes, estimate £5-600 https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/deta...a-14-watts-ch/
This is a cheaper, but still very good, intergrated https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/deta...ier-model-b-1/ again you would need to supply your own tubes, estimate £300-350

Andy if you just want a play without spending I have a pair of 300b mono' s built by Nick Gorham just sat doing nothing, in fact they only returned from Nicks last Sunday following a repair, addition of tentlabs heaters and check over. You are welcome to give them a run out, they are my backup amps so no rush to return them.

Here's a link to the same amp you linked to but on AliExpress, and if you scan down you will see different suppliers selling the same thing, prices vary as do shipping costs:
I am not in the uk at present so cannot see shipping cost to the uk: You can also spend a good afternoon going through all the amps for sale :lol:
You can also look at this site, it is where I purchased my amp from, it is run by a Mr Lee who is very helpful should you have any queries or need advice:
Very true, and what a set of backup amps to have.
I've sent Andy a PM.
