trying to reach Art Audio..... are they gone ?


I have a potential buyer who has questions about my Carissa before he commits. I tried calling Joe Fratus in Rhode Island and Hudson Audio in New Jersey - no luck.

Any help is appreciated.

Joe Fratus was apparently never authorized by Art Audio to represent himself as a US distributor. It was a very big mess about 5 or 6 years ago, and then Hudson Audio took over. They disavowed any connection with him on their website at that time. Now, who knows?
I got the info I was looking for. The company may be on hard times, but the Carissa is still a super star of an amp.
Mattzack2 Were you able to reach Joe Fratus? I lost touch with him, and Art Audio some time ago. Now they seem to have disappeared completely.

I have a Carissa Signature (with some enhancements) and couldn't agree with you more. Fabulous amplifier!
