Introducing the new Continental V5 portable tube amp
All, I'm glad to see the pre-order page live for the CV5! It was quite the 'little project' - but now you'll get to hear why ;-) - CV5 is like no other in terms of its small size, high power (325mW per channel into 32-ohm), very high bandwidth (10Hz - 300kHz, +/- 0.1dB), 6111 Class A...- Vinnie R.

Vinnie Rossi LIO - Ultracapacitor-Powered, Modular Hi-Fi System is here!
Hi tme110, I am no longer a headfi sponsor, so I believe it would violate the rules for me to continue to post about LIO here on HeadFi. Our website has a link to our active user forum, where we cover this and more. All the best, Vinnie- Vinnie R.

Introducing the new Continental V5 portable tube amp
gr8soundz makes some good points above. Also - there is power and there is gain. You can have all the power in the world, but if the amp does have enough gain, you won't be able to get it to play loud enough. And there is also power on paper (using standard resistive load testing) vs...- Vinnie R.

- CV5 has 1 single-ended TRS line input, and 1 single-ended TRS headphone output. - Hi/low gain switch - Volume control (power switch build into volume control, like CDM and Rx) - USB charger input (just like Rx), can be charged via computer or included USB power adapter - Low...- Vinnie R.

Introducing the new Continental V5 portable tube amp
Hi mrmax, Yes, the CV5 has even more output power than the CDM's SE and BAL outputs. Hi hykhleif, Don't expect CV5 to provide proper drive for the HE6. Those really an amp with a lot of voltage gain. But for HE1000, LCD2/3/4, and many others - CV5 not only drives...- Vinnie R.

Introducing the new Continental V5 portable tube amp
...So the cat is out of the bag! I've been working on the CV5 project for quite a while with the ALO team, and I predict that it is going to be *very* popular (I'm guessing the most popular ALO amp so far, for reasons explained below). We learned a lot with the CDM, and for the CV5...- Vinnie R.

Nashua, New Hampshire Meet: Decemeber 5th, 2015
All, I just spoke with Dwight from Fidelis. They are renting chairs and tables. Do you think 40 chairs will be enough? As for tables, they are going to get as many that can fit in there. This year they'll rent 18" deep tables instead of 30" deep tables, so hopefully more tables will...- Vinnie R.
