100% Satisfaction

60 Day Money Back Guarantee

Our guarantee is simple and our promise to you is straightforward; we're here to help you get the best audio for your money - and if we don't do that to your satisfaction, then you shouldn't have to pay.

If you aren't happy with our products or services for any reason, then you get your money back. That's why we give a full 60 days, to make sure you are 100% satisfied.

Our team puts in long hours, hard work, and pure passion into every product we sell, and we are completely confident that you will hear the results.

Please understand that we design our own products, and we hand build them in order to get the cutting edge performance that we're famous for. Sometimes we get a 'little busy', and our lead times vary. On this matter we ask for your patience. The result is always worth it.

If you find that for any reason, the item is not for you - then return it in the condition it was supplied for a full refund - we couldn't make it simpler or more effective (although regretfully, for obvious reasons, we cannot accept PCBs for credit once soldered).

If you have any idea that you're going to be imprisoned, made redundant, be called up for a Mars mission, develop a contagious disease in the near future or suffer any setback which prevents you taking delivery, the advice is simple - PLEASE DON'T PLACE THE ORDER..!!

Mandatory Product Compliance

ALL OUR PRODUCTS are subjected to stringent 'in house' tests at the design and the manufacturing stages.They are then critically examined by approved outside agencies whereupon they are certified to comply with current - European EMC and Product Safety Legislation.

The DOWNSIDE ...

Sadly, there is no way to speed up the work we do unless someone invents a time expansion machine! Avondale Audio is a small company. However, low overheads mean your prices are much less than would otherwise be possible. Almost everything we sell, we have to make and test by hand. Because we provide a unique service in converting pedestrian audio equipment into sonic works of art at a small fraction of the cost of buying new, the popularity of our service has meant longer and longer lead times. If you need a faster service or one which provides you with "off the shelf" mass produced items, we respectfully recommend you consult your favourite audio dealer.

The wait with us may be painful but well worth your patience, we promise you. If you're the type who needs a 'Monkey' to field telephone calls every step of the way (which incidentally you would pay for) - sorry to disappoint - we don't employ one (no licence). When contacting Avondale, you do at least get to speak to the 'Organ Grinder' and, if your enquiry is a lengthy one, you will be invited to call during a quiet evening or weekend period to allow proper attention to be given to your questions - just ask if the mega sized firms offer this personal service! Having said, our construction modules and parts are usually available from stock.

about

What we do

We’re here to help you get the best high end audio for your money. Here's some of the things we get up:

Preamps, powers amps and power supply modules - DIY

For audio DIY builders, tweakers and hifi enthusiasts world wide - this is the home of extreme performance, high end, preamplifiers, audio power amplifiers and power supplies.

Avondale Audio also designs and makes available bare PCBs, with schematics and build instructions, and ready built and tested modules.

Naim Audio service and repairs

Avondale Audio offers specialist repair, service and upgrades to Naim Audio products, especially the NAP250 and Naim 135 power amplifiers.

Please note: we do not offer any service or spare parts for the Naim NAIT integrated amplifiers.

Preamplifier and TPX audiophile power supplies

The Avondale Audio G1 preamp with its advanced triple regulated TPX power supplies is probably the best high end audio bargain available.

For Naim owners, the Avondale MultiCAP audio power supply not only significantly out performs all Naim Audio power supplies, it gives valuable space savings, at a remarkably lower price.

CD upgrades - the AAA5

A firm favourite for many years, we offer CD upgrades, transforming modest CD players in giant killers, including the well know Avondale Audio AAA5 upgrade on the Arcam 5 CD player.

A reputation to be proud of

Avondale Audio has acquired a fiercely loyal following over its 30 year history, and for good reason. We help our customers achieve their audiophile aspirations. We will be happy to do the same for you.

Our Guarantee

We want you to be totally satisfied with our products and services, so we offer a full

60 DAY FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE to ensure your complete satisfaction and peace of mind.

.

We warrant all products with a full parts and labour service, with 1 year and 5 year warranties according to the product. For example, our G1 preamp and M130 power amplifiers come with a 5 year parts and labour warranty as standard.
