richieb Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Does anyone know what happened to Almarro? Their gear was very highly regarded, but they have no US distribution and none of their listed dealers carry the brand anymore (or have gone out of business like Venus HiFi). I also tried to send an emailed l to them, but it bounced due to a full mailbox in their side. The website is still online. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I bought what I believe was the last new dealer unit a couple years ago. They told me Almarro could ot keep up with the demand and with deliveries so poor they cut the line. It seems all others did the same. I liked my 318 but had trouble sourcing tubes that would bias properly so I sold it. The little EL84 SE is a nice piece also and can be had for fair dollars on the used market.

moray james Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) Check out Allnic Audio http://allnicaudio.com/home If you are interested I know a good number of people in Calgary who are running this (pre power and source) if you would like to have a listen. It is very fine sounding gear. Regards moray james. Edited June 6, 2016 by moray james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtmudd Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Any fans here of tube amps and tube pre-amps of Japanese manufacture? I've owned several American made and Chinese made amps but prefer the build quality and sound of my Japanese equipment. Wb find yourself a sansui au-111.
