Got an email from AVA. I don't 'spin' anymore, but if I did, I'd jump on this deal like stink on sh**: Van Alstine 'Vision Phono Q' phono preamp for $329, regular $499. "Midnight Friday" (what time zone?) through Monday.
It's nice and small so if you're embarrassed having a < $500 phono preamp in your system, it would be easy to hide. Get an optioned-out Orbit TT and a Longhorn Grado and you've got a killer vinyl deck for barely over a grand.
"Limited quantities".
You're welcome.
