Van Alstine

Van Alstine has a forum at audiocircle.com. Lots of great info there as Frank monitors it himself.

Yep. I'm always amazed at the number of people that post questions on forums rather than contactng the manufacturer directly.

well actually my question refers to the sound, not the mechanics. I was wondering what to expect form this tube preamp. But then I guess I wasnt clear on that. I am presently using a B&K PT-5 and Proton D1200's.

thanks

oh and one other thing on the speaker selector knob it shows several selections, I know what the A, B, A+B is, but what are the others off to the left?

thanks

Well I recieved my preamp today and it arrived as listed, it sounds very very good. All be it it is kind of smallish. I am simply amazed at how such an old design can compete and even surpass my modern day gear I have. To my ears it sounds better then my B&K PT5, better then my Adcom GFP-710, and every other pre I have on hand, however, the B&K does equal, even surpass' this pre in bass responce and asthtics.

I wish it had dual pre outputs.

Other then that I am very happy, funny thing is, it has new tubes in it, I think I got a very good deal.
