New Products
AVA is pleased to announce a significant number of new products
and new styling, all shipping right now. Features, and functions
are improved and musical performance is enhanced more than you could
ever imagine. When you hear the new products, you will be amazed
and pleased. They are as follows:
Ultra series preamplifiers and DAC
Transcendence series hybrid preamplifiers and DAC have been replaced
with the new Ultra series. These new units have new styling and
most important, much improved audio circuits with new wide band,
low impedance, multi-stage high voltage power supplies with separate
regulators for each section of each circuit. Essentially dual
mono performance back to the power transformer. The music improvements
are just jaw dropping! A true to life rock solid three dimensional
image from wall to wall and beyond with dynamic range and realistic
transient performance never realized before.
Transcendence Eight pure vacuum tube preamplifier
The Transcendence Eight vacuum preamplifiers is brand new and
takes pure tube performance to a new level. It features a new
ground plane shielded mother board and wide band, low impedance,
multi-stage high voltage power supplies with separate regulators
for each section of each circuit. Essentially dual mono performance
back to the power transformer. The music improvements are just
jaw dropping! A true to life rock solid three dimensional image
from wall to wall and beyond with an amazing reproduction of the
"space and stage" of the musical performance.
Ultra series Fet Valve amplifiers
The Fet Valve Ultra 350 and Ultra 550 amplifiers are now shipping
with new wide band, low impedance, multi-stage high voltage power
supplies with separate regulators for each section of each audio
circuit board. In addition the high voltage supplies run at higher
voltages to get the best possible performance out of the tubes.
Essentially dual mono performance back to the power transformer.
Transparency, range, control, and musical reality are performed
like never before. New faceplate styling too.
"EX" series OmegaStar amplifiers
All of our new solid state power amplifiers are now shipping with
the EX output stage similar to that used in the Fet Valve amplifiers.
(Please note that the OmegaStar power amplifiers have always had
regulated audio board power supplies.) This performance improvement
raises them to a new level of audiophile pleasure.
High current toroid transformer for OmegaStar EC preamplifier
and OmegaStar DAC
The OmegaStar EC preamplifier and the OmegaStar DAC are now shipping
with a high current toroid power transformer and new regulated
power supplies. A beautiful enhancement in musical performance.
Many older AVA products can be economically upgraded
with the new power supplies and EX output circuits.
Please call us at 651-330-9871 for more details and
pricing information. These products are not yet in our catalog or
completely documented on the web site yet because we have been too
busy building new equipment to update these resources! We will be
happy to supply you more information by telephone for the time being.
Thanks for your attention,
Frank Van Alstine
