Announcing the Synergy Amplifiers

You can read the review from Enjoy the Music's Anthony Nicosia here. 

We now offer four great new power amplifiers for you.  Both are all solid state, all have twelve active regulated power supplies, including active regulated power supplies for the output circuits.

These provide nearly the same amazing dynamics, transparency, and sense of "you are there" live presentations that have made our new Fet Valve hybrid amps so successful.  Better yet, there is no hint of "solid state" sound, just music.

Upgrades are available for any older AVA 440,  260, 240, or Control Amplifier series solid state amplifier.

We can build you a new Synergy amplifier right now.  Finally, solid state amplifiers that make no excuses at all.

Audio by Van Alstine

Audio by Van Alstine offers you true state-of-the-art high-fidelity at prices you can afford. We have been designing and building truly musical systems for nearly forty-five years.

We sell direct so you can avoid high prices and high pressure. We avoid frivolous accessories. We want you for a long-term client, not for just a quick buck.

Our engineering staff is continually busy developing new designs and improving existing designs in our attempt to bring you the very best new audio equipment in every price range. In many cases we are able to offer affordable upgrades to your existing AVA equipment as well. Our upgrades to classic Dynaco and Hafler equipment are classics in themselves.

How good is our equipment? Our customers are our best sales people. Check the Audicircle.com, AudioREVIEW.com or AudioAsylum.com websites and search for "Alstine". You will see what our customers think.

Our clients get our ongoing expert consultation and guidance. If you call us we will take the time to listen and give you the best guidance we can. You get to talk to a real person, not an electronic switchboard.

Our equipment is custom built to your order in Minnesota by our skilled technicians who still remember what "high fidelity" means.

Do some background research

We love educated consumers! There's way too much fluff and magic in the audio industry - still freezing your CDs? For over 15 years we wrote a newsletter chok full of primers, essays, and the occasional tirade. For the first time, all of the Audio Basics issues are available online, free for the looking.
