I don't visit other websites so I would not know, but why would they be hostile to Spectral owners and enthusiasts?
I heard from the Hong Kong Specral dealer that Spectral will sell their modified Avalon speakers.
Just noticed that it is back online, but the new products page is displaying the 2019 slide.
No new products on the horizon. Maybe an updated amp but I wouldn't hold my breath.

I’m not a betting man, but if I was, I would take your money on the amplifier not being next. All they do is tweaks to amps for years. It’s easy money for them. They are just replacing NOS components they can no longer get with substitutes. The preamps have been updated using the same approach.
You will not see a phonostage or a dac from Spectral. The 2 box preamp is nowhere on the horizon.
I do use a Spectral preamp and amplifier but I have written them off. Any substitutes will come from a different company.
Just saw that they changed the new products page for 2020 and added "DMA-500SV MONAURAL REFERENCE STANDARD AMPLIFIER " which I assume is the same as the Anniversary Reference? Throw any more bandwidth in there and light will shoot out the binding posts.
