VTL information

I recently bought a pair of VTL Deluxe 240 monoblocks. The seller didn't have the owners manual. I contacted VTL and was told they don't have any information on amps that age (1993-1997). It has David Manley on the front of the amp too so I called them and was told they engineered them but they were made by VTL.  Although they were more helpful still now information. If someone could help me with any information I would greatly appreciate it. I want to get them serviced before trying them and am anxious to hear them.

Thank all of you for the information. My tech is soon to have room on his bench for them and we will see. He is very good and not to concerned about the servicing them. When I get new equipment I like to get the sales brochure and owners manual and a few reviews for it for later reference.

Good thing you have a good tech because VTL’s customer service seems to be among the worst in the business.

Look through the past forums regarding VTL. They have proven to be VERY unhelpful on 2nd hand VTL gear. It's why many audiophiles will not buy used VTL gear. It's unfortunate since it is considered some very nice gear

Actually it could be argued that Luke's wife runs VTL.

Have never heard a good word about VTL's service nor their turnaround time.
