ABOUT THE NEW NVA
"I'm delighted that the NVA name lives on and that Richard Dunn's designs have been subtly improved and made more accessible." David Price (Global Editor, Stereonet)
NVA is the British hi-fi amplifier manufacturer founded in 1982 by renowned electronics designer, Richard Dunn. Richard passed away in 2019, but the brand has been carried on by Tom Danus (top right), who worked alongside Richard for 3 years and Paul Tiernan (top middle), an NVA customer since 2016 and audiophile of 30 plus years who had been helping Richard and Tom at shows.
The new NVA initially prioritised existing users, ensuring that heritage models can be serviced and offering retrofit upgrades to bring components up to the latest specifications. That has included fitting high quality power supply components such as Toroidy Audio Grade transformers and Vishay long life capacitors. Tom and Paul are now ready to promote the NVA message to a wider audience. Paul says… “the quality of the latest NVA amplifiers is the best that the company has ever produced.”
Then, in 2022, we were joined by Mark McVitty (top left), who bought a share in the company and took on the UK amp building, enabling Tom to stay in Poland, where he supplies upgrades, servicing, repairs and cables for our EU customers. Mark is based very near to the Nene Valley, at our new workshop, so NVA has now come 'full circle' back to it's original roots.
NVA sell direct to customers with a 30 day home trial and a ‘Music Now – Pay Later’ option to allow you to test in your own system without upfront payment. The new NVA hi-fi range now includes; passive pre-amplifiers, power amplifiers, integrated amplifiers, headphone amplifiers, phono stages, interconnect cables, speaker cables and a balanced mains unit (BMU).
