I want to thank all of you who have liked us on Facebook.  We plan to post new photos
and info there, so it will be updated frequently.  A big photo shoot is in the works for
early next month, followed by a new web design launch at the end of next month.

Other really exciting announcements are coming soon, so stay connected!

Of course I'll be posting news and updates on the RWA forum here as well... 

Thanks again,

Vinnie

Some updated pictures and info... thanks for all that have connected with us!

New announcements coming at the end of this month

Been throwing out some ideas/concepts on the wall of our Facebook page... check 'em out
and I'd love your feedback.

The most important question Vinnie, is when do we get to hear all of these good ideas?

Don't be holding out on us

I believe a LFP-V powered Class AB (or even Class A) will attract many potential buyers.

Just thinking out loud here. Would it be possible to build a higher power Class A amp using 2 chassis? One chassis can fit 4 batteries (like in a maxed out Black Lighting), the other chassis can fit the tube module along with the rest of the components. That should provide lots of current.

Hi AudioAddiction,

All in good time - all in good time. 
Stay tuned for the new RWA website release next week.  This will just be the beginning...

Hi Tommy,

Welcome to Audiocircle and the RWA forum.

I've been way ahead of you on this one.  About 2 years in the making.  No need for a separate chassis for batteries, but definitely monoblocks on higher voltage LiFePO4.  LFP-V, discrete AB, 8-FETs per channel, so LOTS of current!    Definitely by the end of this summer...

Thanks for all your posts,

Vinnie

How many watts will be in pure Class A?

Hi Tommy,

The tube input stage is pure class A, but the discrete FET output stage is Class AB.  This design puts out a clean 100wpc into 8-ohm, 200wpc into 4-ohm, and is 2-ohm stable. 

Can't go into more details at this time - just take my word for it - these monos are in their own class!

Pricing?

Not ready for that yet... but will keep everyone updated.

Very interesting. Look forward to more details.

[Vinnie R.]

Actually - I did some fine-tuning and am now getting approx. 112wpc into 8-ohm and approx. 225wpc into 4-ohm. 

We'll finally be in production next month - we had delays with the enclosures.  They are really nice and has a new window the slide open on the top (built into our logo) for easy tube rolling. 

The sound is far better than anything we've done before and I can't wait for the formal release next month!

All - thanks for joining us on facebook and signing up on our email list to stay in touch with the latest and greatest!

Stay tuned for more great things!!!

All,

Just a bump for an old thread.

Even if you are not a Facebook member, you can still see updates that we post there:

We have a lot of news coming in the next few weeks, and we post quick updates there - and we will continue to
post more detailed information and encourage interaction here on our Audiocircle forum.
