"If you need a DAW station this is the place to go. I was in the process of doing an upgrade to my recording studio and needed a new DAW computer. I resisted the urge to go to a MAC and I glad I did. Sales Rep Joe Mundy did an excellent job assisting me on my final requirements for the build, he understood the software requirements used in a DAW which help in choosing the right components. The build quality was excellent,the internal wiring is professionally bundled and out of the way. The care and packaging was great, double boxed and stuffed with shipping peanuts and all the internal computer components where secured. I have not had to use Technical Support as I have not needed them. The DAW ran great right out of the box. Pricing was outstanding. I priced the parts at Newegg and Tigerdirect and I could not build it myself cheaper. I have/will recommended AVAdirect to my friends. I will definitely use them for any other computers I may need in the future.
