I've had my AVA FET VALVE CFR PREAMPLIFIER for a few months, but haven't really spent any quality time with it. Having said that, I will say this: It is a huge improvement over the Parasound P3 that it has replaced.
Van Alstine pre-amplifiers
Recently read a post regarding Van Alstine tube based pre-amplifiers.
Sounds interesting . One of the reviewers ( on the AVA website ) suggested the pre-amplifier did not add richness to the tone of the music and suggested the soundstage was not enlarged. Otherwise a rave review.
Has anyone have personal experience with these tube based pre-amplifers?
My goal is to add tonal richness and improve timbre. Plan to run into a Leben amplifier.
Thanks
