International Version of Adagio Phono Stage May 05 2016
In response to several requests, we have created an international version of the Adagio Phono Stage. It operates on line voltages from 220-240V 50-60Hz, using a custom wound power transformer (and with other power supply changes to accommodate wider supply voltage variations).
Unless we have shipped to your country and postal code before (which is very unlikely), you won't see a shipping option for international locations. Please contact us for a shipping quote. Thanks!
We're on a path to creating international versions of all our products; the Classic and Vintage Phono Stages are next.
Minotaur Review in EnjoyTheMusic.com April 30 2016
Ron Nagle just published a great review of our Minotaur Integrated Amplifier in EnjoyTheMusic.com. Thanks Ron!
Minotaur Back in Stock April 21 2016
The balanced-input version of the Minotaur is back in stock. Thanks for your patience!
The balanced-input version (with 2 XLR balanced inputs and 3 RCA unbalanced inputs) is much more popular than the original version (with 5 RCA unbalanced inputs), and we've been thinking about discontinuing the original version. Let us know if you feel otherwise, or if you have any other questions (info@tavishdesign.com). Thanks!

The Adagio Phono Stage is back in stock.
I think it is unlikely, but based on the number of emails we’ve gotten, it’s possible that it may sell out again. Not to worry if that happens; we’re planning to build another batch in early-to-mid April. In the worst case scenario, we’ll start an ordered waiting list (like at a busy restaurant), but let’s see first.
Thanks for your interest!
Vintage, Adagio, and Minotaur Availability March 15 2016
Several of our products are out of stock. Sorry for the delay. We got some publicity a few weeks ago on CNET, and our "just-in-time" inventory control system turned into a "not-in-time" inventory control system. We've ordered more parts, and things should start getting back to normal next week (~ Friday April 1). Please bear with us, and thanks for your patience.
Adagio Phono Stage Availability March 04 2016
We've had a spike in orders for the Adagio Phono Stage (thanks everyone!!) and it is temporarily out of stock due to parts shortages. We have enough parts on hand to fill all existing orders, and we're assembling and filling orders in the order received. We've ordered more components and anticipate accepting orders for the Adagio again in late March.
We're sorry for the unexpected delay. We anticipate that things will be back to normal in a few weeks. Send us an email (info@tavishdesign.com) to be notified when the Adagio is available. Thanks!
