Hi Joe -
I listened to their integrated, the solista, at Ears Nova in the city for a couple of hours. It is fantastic, but a bit pricey....I think around $12k? They set it up with both Rockports and the Magico monitors. It sounded great to me and I was surprised at the ease with which it drove speakers with only 20 odd watts. It had a much more fleshed out sound than the Boulder 865 I compared it to, but ultimately I preferred the Ayon Spirit III at half the price. Lucky for me I guess
Anyways, they are very friendly at Ears Nova which was refreshing for such a high-end shop. I had a copy of the Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here re-issued vinyl and they offered to play it on the big rig as I was the only one there. We listened to the entire album on the massive constellation, rockport, basis setup and I was blown away. The owner is very nice. Worth checking out if you're interested....although knowing you, you'd probably walk out with the Constellation amps. haha.
Geardaddy has this and loves it. I will see if I can find his comments....$22K new now. Correction: $17 new for a Mark 3.
Comments: I just picked up a Viva Solista integrated (mark 1). It is awesome so I'm in a stick with that for now.
They usually run 4-8k used, depending on vintage. It has world class line stage in it (a true active stage) so it should be better than amps with passive on board IMO. VIVA has been building world class SETS since 1996.
