Well if we could get 23 more folks we could get the 1000va torrid. I have an 800va but I'd throw my name in for a 1000va
What say Brian you up for a 1000va torrid? -
Thanks John. I appreciate that!. Ivan, I'm down. After reading about the sonic difference between the A1 and the dreadnought seems huge and also between the 800 vs 1000. I just need someone to build it.Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista 300, Audioquest Thunderbird Zero Speaker Cable, Tyler Highland H2, Audioquest Thunderbird Interconnect, Innuos Zen MK3 W4S recovery, Revolution Audio Labs USB & Ethernet, Border Patrol SE-I, Audioquest Niagara 5000 & Thunder, Cullen Crossover II PC's.

I built the 800va version and it is excellent....but, if we can get the 1000va group buy I am in on that!

Ivan- If a group buy is in the future, you can count me in also.

If we get this thing up and running Brian I'll be more than happy to build it.
Next question is talking my main man Larry and Brian to find time to build the cases.

Lets see if anyone answers the bat phone -
I'd be in. It couldn't hurt to have a second one in stock.
As for the cases that's a Larry deal.The Night is Dark and Full of Terrors -

Well Steve it's the top of the line and more than a few here got rid of the 800va to get the 1000va.
The 800va is off the shelf and 1000va are special order. Raife was very lucky to get one to test and came away very impressed.
Thanks for chiming in Brian. -
I think DarqueKnight had a thread on the difference between the 800 & 1000.

How many have expressed interest in a 1000VA group buy at this point?
You'd need 10 to commit at a little over $300ea. In '16, the shipped quote for 10 was $310.43Beach Study: ProJect Stream Box Ultra & Pre Box S2 * Pass ACA * DH Labs SS Q10 * Brines Folded ML-TQWT 40-1354Town Study: Elekit TU-8600S * Zu Omen DW * Shunyata Hydra 2 * MIT S3 Beach Cave: Schiit Yggy * Belles 20a * Pass Aleph 30 * Polk SRS 2.3tl * PSAudio PP3 * MIT S3 Beach Den: Dayens Menuetto * Polk R200 / Dynaudio Audience 30 / Usher V-601Town Den: PS Audio DSJr * Joule-Electra LA-100mkiii * Schiit Aegir / Pass F5 Clone * Polk SRS 1.2 * PSA Dectet * MIT S3 -
Wow another potential group buy. This should be interesting to watch after the last one in 2016/2017!

from the link Craig provided Steve.
@Toolfan66 stated
Don't get me wrong the 800 works great (better then the original AI-1 and better then strapping the negs on the amp) the new AL 1000 takes it to a new level and my system sounds really sweet right now. -

possible 7 Craig. No rush we'll let this marinate a bit it is Xmas new year holiday's, but I think we may be able to swing it. I hoping we get more than 10 but I'll take what we can get to get this done.
thanks Craig -
This is almost exactly the same way the last group buy happened

yes Larry's case is extra. Those are 2016 price and I expect it to be a bit more to be truthful. the more we get to commit the cheaper it will be.
the price was shipped to the destination -

yessss Carlton but we seem to be getting attention now..... -
Have a look at the old group buy thread to find the Avel-Lindburg contact info and hit them up about current pricing. If memory serves they will be closing for the holidays and coming back shortly after the new year.

and then there are the new/higher tariffs. Even if it was an extra C-note ... Worth it!Power Rogue M180 monos & Adcom GFA 5802
