Vintage Asylum

Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

I had one from when it first came out in 1989 (I believe) up to 2006...It was reliable, and I bought it because my dealer (unclestu) had the pv-5 in his showroom as their reference preamp back then a few months earlier, and I wanted their newest mid priced wonder..

It had more of a neutral sound, not euphonic like the pv-5, and if I were to choose again, I'd get the pv-5 and have it modded..

unclestu had installed some bybee purifiers in the pv-8 when the purifiers came out...still, very reliable, hardly got hot, used to put the VPI brick on the right rear corner near its transformer, and got better imaging.
