Philly Audio 7a and 7BII line stages.....

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Man! Have you seen this stuff? Gorgeous linestages that look a LOT like a mini Jadis, with choke filters, single ended, and tube rectification! HOW can they DO this, for 5 clams? The answer of course, is they're made in the People's Republic of China.
Which brings me to my questions. Anyone had any experience with these? How reliable are they, how is the warranty service handled? Also, it seems like the 7B uses scarce, harder to find NOS tubes than the 7a, which uses the usual suspects. Anyone care to comment on the sonics of these units? They also have on their website headphone amps, and power amps...wish they'd make a PHONO preamp! Then I could put together a phono, linestage, and headphone amp combo that'd come in for about what I paid for my AVA T7, which is a fine unit, but it doesn't have tube rectification, choke filtration, or single ended circuitry, and it's not the eye candy this gear is.
