Yes, David has had/has some supply chain issues, as many others, but bottom line he is simply swamped for a 1 or 2 man operation. I waited several weeks for my Signature preamp, and it seems the wait has not gotten better. Johnny Rutan only has the Aria Integrated in stock, at least that's what he told me last week.
Sad to say I need a new amp…
My twenty year old Mesa Tigris went up in smoke last week. It’s so thoroughly overbuilt I thought she would last forever. Lots of smoke and strong pungent odor, actually has to air the house out. I’ll call Mesa but think it’s time for a change…
The Mesa was hooked up to some Totem mites and a small REL subwoofer in my bedroom/office. So far, I’ve done some reading and have come up with some possible replacement. After my smoke out, I’m thinking solid state in the bedroom… I use a little audioengine Bluetooth receiver for my source in my office..
Exposure 2510, VanAlstine SET 120, Belles Aria and Rega Brio all sound like they would work well. Appreciate any input on these or others. Hoping to keep the cost under 2500. I listen mostly to jazz, classical music..

A repair shop warned me against Rogue amps. 1) They see more than their fair share in for repairs. 2) They're difficult to work on because they use proprietary boards, not universal parts. Supply can be an issue, because they're imported from China. Rogue may sound good, but they advised against them. |
@analogj You should correct your post… Are Rogue Audio products manufactured in the United States? Yes! Every single Rogue Audio product is hand built at our factory here in Brodheadsville, Pennsylvania. And from the software on the programmable chips to the amplifiers circuitry, all of our products are designed in house by our engineering team. Sad you fostered bad info… |
