The iNova is an older-generation design, superseded by later Nova models, so timing matters mainly because its digital connectivity and iPod dock are dated. At US$700, though, this is clearly ambitious: recent comparable asking prices center on US$491, with the 75th percentile at US$595. It is well above the established used-market range unless the condition and package are exceptional.
There is still plenty to like here. The iNova combines an engaging tube-buffered preamp, capable MOSFET amplification, headphone output, home-theater bypass, and a genuinely useful DAC in one handsome chassis. It handles coaxial digital to 24/192 and USB to 24/96, making it more versatile than its age suggests. For a clean, complete example with remote, original tube, and packaging, US$550–US$595 would feel defensible; at US$700, negotiate firmly.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Peachtree Audio emerged from Atlanta, Georgia, in 2007, when audio industry veterans Jim Spainhour and David Solomon launched their debut product: the groundbreaking Decco integrated amplifier. This was the world's first integrated amp with a USB input, enabling direct computer playback via its onboard DAC—a pioneering fusion of digital convenience and analog warmth that redefined entry-level hi-fi. Assembled and tested in their North Carolina facility, the brand quickly gained traction among enthusiasts seeking accessible high-performance audio.
The company focuses on integrated amplifiers and DACs that blend digital precision with musicality, alongside streamers, preamps, and powered speakers. Their lineup emphasizes simplicity, beauty, and superior sound, from the affordable Nova series to more advanced models, without venturing into turntables, headphones, or cables. In 2017, Peachtree marked its tenth anniversary with a "2.0" relaunch, introducing refined products that elevated their core strengths in compact, high-value amplification.
Peachtree occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, celebrated for delivering premium sound at approachable prices—think $800 wonders that punch above their weight. Far from high-end esoterica or vintage collector bait, they appeal to discerning buyers who prioritize performance over prestige, earning praise from outlets like Stereophile for their reboot and enduring appeal in a digital-first era.
