"The FET Valve represents modern tube sound at its best. Its twin virtues, really a happy blend of neutrality and accuracy, guarantee that it will not dominate the personality of your audio system. It responds well to vintage tube substitutions, and so configured, it is without a doubt the best sounding AVA preamp I’ve auditioned to date. And by extension, I’m inclined to accept that it is likely the best affordable full-function preamp money can buy. Consider it as a mandatory audition for anyone with a budget under $6k." - The Absolute Sound
