|  Antique Audio Labs "Wave 8's" | Jth Apr 17, 2002 1:04 PM | | I am considering changing my audio gear. I am very attracted to the Wave 8's at $99.00 a side, might run them with the Paradigm Atom speakers (ww/subwoofer). Also considering the Antique Audio Labs 'passive pre amp at just under $400.00? or the Creek passive amp OB 10/12(?) at about $325.00. I realize there may be better setups than this but I am a sucker for the little wave amps. Another option might be the ecomony Jolida 302 for $325.00. This is not my home theatre system but just a little music system for a den or office....Please give me some feedback!!!!!! Thanks |

It's an integrated that offers you a SET option. It's supposed to be quite good http://www.divertech.com/antiquesl.html

An integrated will be a better option. Since I am an ASL dealer, I don't want to say much here. If you want more discussion, you can e-mail at paullam@sk.sympatico.ca

|  re: Antique Audio Labs "Wave 8's" | Jth Apr 28, 2002 2:22 PM | | Thank you very much for your responce...It's seems as though the Wave 8's got very good first reviews but now there is not much heard about them. A dealer in Denver said they were on back order and was not sure how soon they would be available. But that ASL is a quality company. I thought for the price it might be a winner(?), not sure. I realize the cost of cables and pre-amps. I have seen you on this site before and good advice. Still like them but seems not a big interest among true tube people, Again, thanks for your help. |
