I am not considering it but I am familiar with the technology.
Pros:
2x LDMOS, 1500W out with better IMD than just 1 device
Supports adaptive predistortion
Has a LAN port for something, who knows, but that is good
I would imagine native full support for Elecraft radios
Cons:
No SO2R (even if you don't trust SO2R in 1 box, you buy two SO2R amps
you have double redundancy in case of failure)
I don't like a separate power supply.
