I was looking on the website and they were gone.  Out of production?

[Tone Depth]

I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

I thought the fet-valve were long out of production, where have you been?

[aln]

 Lately called the 600R and the Mono block version.  Not there.

[aln]

Also called Hybrid on the web site.  They all have the tube input and fet output.  Take a look.

[rcag_ils]

Oh, I thought you meant the original "Fet Valve" from the late 80's.

Crazy parts shortages prevent us from building any more Fet Valve amplifiers until things get better.

Wow!  That’s crazy.  Good luck and let us know when the fet-valve is back in production.  Happy New Year!

Do you still offer the Transcendence 10 SLR preamp? Coming up on three years happy ownership, my T10 SLR and SET 120 are all I'll ever need or want.

Dang, to spend so much effort designing an amazing amplifier, only to be denied by unforeseen problems along the supply chain. Shopper is not happy, AVA is not happy, the suppliers are not happy, the OEM is not happy...

I suppose we all knew that offshoring our components would lead to problems, but I am surprised that we could be here so soon. I hope our times don't become full-on "No eggs--cheeseburger", but when an outfit as resourceful and attentive as AVA is subject to these show-stopping externalities, it scares me to think of how many other companies are finding themselves in a similar place.

We are still OK building the T10 RB preamps along with most other products.

There will be a delay building more M225 power amplifiers until a new batch of metal parts and power transformers arrive.

The fact that they are selling about three time as fast as we predicted caught us by surprise.

Still waiting for more power transformers for the SET 120 and SET 120 Control Amps too.

I don't buy the chip shortage one bit, I think it's a conspiracy right alongside with the pandemic and labor shortage, so the manufacturers could jack up the prices on computer, car, TV and etc. I bet they have tons of chips and semiconductors stashed in a building somewhere in Asia, waiting for the right time to unleash them.
