Hi guys,
not sure if this is the right spot, or even if I'm allowed to put this thread up, but I thought I'd let everyone know that Aspect Masking am now an authorised re-seller of the Elektra gear!

So, if anyone is looking to buy one of Arthur's fantastic amplifiers, feel free to PM, email or call me for a quote.

I am located in Melbourne, but am more than happy to ship anywhere.

Cheers,

Chris

Does Arthur have a website? These are only power amps right?

[Prior]

No, no website Rich.  Yes, there's the 7 channel power amp and the 2 channel reference amps.

Cheers,

Chris

[agelessgoodguy]

Well done Chris, so will you be developing a web site around the amps now instead of Arthur?

[Prior]

Thanks Ross,
yeah, I'd like to add some info.  I really need to build myself a good website, so may start with that...

Cheers,

Chris

the reference 2ch amps he stopped making for a while chris he's making them again ? I know he said at the last clef gtg he was refreshing them along with the dac and the 2ch tube pre.

Chris, great to hear that you've become a reseller.  Not in the market yet, but will be in future...

Any chance of putting up some Elektra specs on the Aspect Masking website? Or perhaps you could do a site for Arthur.

Hi Quark,
yeah, I'd like to put them up on my site.  I really need to rebuild my site as part of that though...

Yeah, they're supposed to be coming Al.  Need to get more details.  At least for the moment, the TheatronHD's are available.

Hi guys.  I spoke to Arthur yesterday and yes, there is indeed an all new 2 channel reference amp that's just about ready for release!  It will have a balanced design, but to what level I'm not sure.  During the re-design, the manufacturing process has been simplified to make assembly quicker also.

RRP hasn't been set yet, but when it's released, I'm happy to organise a GTG for anyone who's interested in seeing/hearing the amp.

Cheers,

Chris

good to hear.

[Prior]

Oh, and Arthur is aslo doing a new vavle pre-amp

I'm hoping to get Arthur and his new gear to the GTG I'll have once my room is completed, so anyone who wants to see them is welcome to come along and see them and chat to him about them.

Cheers,

Chris

good to hear chris. he did mention a complete revamp of the 2ch gear he makes post the theatre hd so good to hear coming through. lets hope he can also do the front face plates in gloss black for his 2ch as well

[Prior]

Yes, all the products will match, which always looks good!

Cheers,

Chris

[Bsaac]

Any idea what the new 2 channel amp is likely to sell for?

[Prior]

I have an idea Bsaac, but am waiting for Arthur to solidify the RRP.  So I'd rather wait until that has been done before making any announcements.  What were his previous models worth?

Cheers,

Chris

same as T7. tube Pre amp was $4.5k and 2ch reference power amp was $4k.

edit if i remember his dac was $3-4k as well.'

ps chris do you know with his 2ch gear if is going to add spare set of pre outs on the pre and a pre out on the power amp. was a deficiency on the original pre and pwr as meant made it hard for 2ch guys to run a sub off his gear.

Hey Chris
May come in handy when I am in the market for my second HD to add to my system.

[yorac]

Hey Chris, slightly OT but is Arthur still happy to have a look over previously sold units, if so wouldn't mind getting him to give mine a once over.......

Pending Yorac's response Arthur has looked over my previous amp with no problems and did so only a few weeks ago.

Yeah, I can't see why not mate.  If he's done Lucmor's, can't see him having an issue checking yours...
