Seven of our products received Editor's Choice Awards in the current March, 2021 issue of The Absolute Sound.

I wonder if this is some kind of a record we have just repeated?   

I would suggest that this shows that Audio by Van Alstine knows what we are doing with all audio technologies; vacuum tube (3 awards), solid state (2 awards) and hybrid (2 awards) and power ratings from 60W/Ch to 850W/Ch.  All achieved by excellent electrical engineering, no botique or magic parts or wires used at all, and all at real world rational prices.

Here they all are, with links to each.

AVA SET 120 solid state 60W/Ch power amplifier. $899

And a link to both the SET 120 and T10 RB as reviewed in The Absolute Sound.

AVA Fet Valve CFR vacuum tube preamplifier.  $2099

And last, but certainly not least, our Vision Q phono preamplifier.  $499 (or a $329 option built into any new AVA preamplifier)

Note that the Vision Q uses ultra low noise LM1028 ICs, not OPA 627s.

And of course these don't even include the new rave reviews of our Vision SET 400 225W/Ch solid state power amplifier ($1999) and Vision SET 600 600W solid state mono power ampifiers ($2699 each) in Audiophila.  Note too that in each of these reviews, the reviewer was so impressed that they purchased and kept these amplifiers for their own system long term use.

Finally Parttimeaudiophile just reviewed our SET 120 Control Amplifier (same amp as SET 120 basic amp with passive preamp section) and here is that review.

If you are still overlooking AVA audio equipment because it is not expensive enough to sound good, think again. The experts say these are just what you need.

No surprise to us!

Wow. That is one impressive, thorough, long, comprehensive list.

Since some of those items harken back to 2010ish... looks like the 2010s were yours after all, Frank!

To think that the entire world likes to listen to good sounds, and works on it... and here you are, with all those medals... and you still answer the phone every chance you get.

Thank you and your crew for giving us access to so many medals!
