Are the circuits still discrete transistor Class A? You've dropped from 6 inputs to 4 inputs, have the tape circuits been dropped? Nice to have mute/low gain switch!

Can the Basic model be ordered with a phonostage?

Would like to see photos of the new boards. Are they similar to the two small boards mounted on the PC board AVA PC-D50.1 that's in the MK5 DAC?

Frank's website lists the "Vision Adjustable Phono Circuits" as a $329.00 option to the Basic. http://avahifi.com/products/pre-amplifiers/transcendence-10-rb-preamplifier

Have fun,

Well that's my doubt. Seems like the Basic Vsion SS pre-amp is different animal than the Vision SL pre-amp

Vision SL and new Vision RB both have identical Class A audio circuits.   Both use identical audio circuits as used in new AVA DAC MK 5.  Newest plug in audio boards are surface mount parts design to take advantage of much tighter tolerance parts.

Vision Q phono board is $329 option in any new AVA preamp.   Q upgrade available for $50 in must recent AVA preamps with Vision phono circuits.

Optional remote volume and mute function available as $299 option for any new AVA preamp.

RB configuration has 4 pairs inputs, 2 pair audio outputs, front panel has selector switch, vol control, standard size headphone output, and power switch.  SL configuration adds 2 more sets of inputs, tape in and tape out jacks, balance control, and push button switches for tape monitor, mono-stereo, low gain, and filter functions.

Note that Fet Valve CF Real Basic version available now too for $1599.  Black faceplate only

Thinking about all you people located in harms way from Irma.  Stay safe!

Do you enVision a Vision EC preamplifier with switchable tone controls and a full function remote?

[avahifi]

The new Vision SLR preamplifier does have a full function remote standard. It supports volume, input select, on-off, and display dim functions.  Balance control and switches for mono-stereo, low gain, high filter, and low filter are also included.  All remote functions are executed with high quality relay contacts and a motor driven Alps volume control.  New internal layout eliminates nearly all long signal lead paths for quieter operation than ever.

Sorry, no tone controls.  The new class A discrete transistor line circuits will not support that function.

Note that our thick silver faceplate and remote control are standard.  The Vision Q adjustable phono section is an option.
