Yeah, but I loved the sound of the advent phono stage, and when a/b'ed I sold a number of them. If they wanted more power, we'd yank the preamp out/main amp in jumpers and stick something high current on the circuit.
That makes more sense. Tough to compare 15 watts/ch with 185 per.
We didn't see a ton of Advents for service - more for scratchy volume controls or tape monitor switches; few for electronic failures.
The Advent had its phono preamp stage designed by Tomlinson Holman, of THX fame.
