How do I get AVA amps in India
« on: 18 Aug 2006, 10:51 am »
Hi Guys,
How do I get Valn Alstine amps in India. I am based in India right now and I am looking for a good amp around 1000 dollars. Shortlisted AVA 260EX or the odyssey stratos. Do AVA have any dealers in India ? Any customers on this forum from India to whom I could talk ? Any dealers in Singapore, Dubai etc.. who are our neighbors ?

I believe AVA amps are direct sales only. Contact Frank by email or pm.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. I have to check out the customs regulations out here in India. I am working on it. I was wondering if AVA has any customers in India/Bangalore.

Thanks,
Hertz.

Im probably the only AVA customer in India!

I've got one of Frank's Omega 111 solid state preamps, which I bought about 7 years ago as a kit, and is working fine to this day. In terms of basic design and engineering, durability and value for money, not many mfrs to match AVA.

I have various other gear also bought from the US, mostly valve pre and power amps and integrateds-from Transcendant, Welborne, Diyhifisupply from Hongkong etc, as well as an AKSA solod state amp from Australia. I did think about buying a power amp from him a few years ago, but he wasnt prepared to accept credit card payment, having had a problem a few years earlier with a fraudulent international transaction.

Let me know if you have any quesions about customs etc, I can help. If you happen to visit Bangalore, let me know maybe I can audition my stuff for you!
