Nightfall, You don't seem to understand. Joe Fratus was not authorized by anyone but himself to be the US distributor of Art Audio products. Some customers lost serious money when he disappeared. It is a shame though, as I once had a demo of the Carissa with Tannoy Kensington speakers, and it sounded really beautiful. Most people who have owned them love those amps, and they're pretty too. |
I just sold my Carissa. I will wonder if I did the right thing until I finish building my Audio Note Legend parallel 300b monoblocks and fall in love with them. At my age, I have to knock off one more thing on my bucket list, and this 300b system is very high on that list. Goodbye sweet Carissa. I will always love you. |
I know this is an old thread but Art Audio has returned to the US and we are the new distributor. For anyone who has run into issues previously, I will be happy to work with you. Please reach out directly at "[email protected]." If you are looking for service on your old Art Audio gear I am happy to help you find a service center. These are wonderful amps that look amazing and sound even better. We will do our best to address any outstanding issues. |
I recently purchased an Art Audio PX-25 ordered through Verdant Audio and not only is the amp fabulous; but Scott Bierfeldt at Verdant Audio did an outstanding job. The amp was built and shipped by Tom Willis in less than one month and Scott made ordering easy. I must add, this is the nicest amp we've owned in over 50 years of audio; besting both Audion Golden Dreams and Audio Note Conquest Silver Signatures among others. |
